Claritas provides many different types of genetic diagnostic tests starting with single gene analysis up to whole exome sequencing. The lab also has interpretive services, which help clinicians in the understand of various genetic details. Payment options include IVR, payment by post, and physical payments. There are programs that entail financially supporting those patients in need.

Awards and Achievements

Claritas is on scientific advancement, and we work alongside clinicians and researchers to come up with findings that will result in new tests and clinical knowledge in the field of pediatric genomics. ISO 15189 accreditation, CLIA certification, and several state licenses support the fact that the company provides high-quality service.

 

who we are

Who we are

Claritas is a genetic diagnostic laboratory that has the goal of providing the highest quality testing services for diagnosis of pediatric disorders. Originating as the in-house genetic testing lab at Boston Children’s Hospital, Claritas was launched as a stand-alone entity in February 2013, and in October 2013, Cincinnati Children’s Hospital joined us, beginning the formation of a genomic network of pediatric hospitals.
