A pathology report is required to perform profiling. Please fax or mail the report to Caris, or ask your pathology department to do so. Additional information about the patient history is not a mandatory requirement but helpful for providing the individual MI profile report.

Tumour profiling can help identify appropriate treatment options when: • your cancer is no longer responding to standard treatment options • your cancer is particularly aggressive or rare or has limited treatment options for other reasons • The changes in your tumour are specific to your individual disease. This is the reason why patients respond differently to cancer treatments. • Tumour profiling thoroughly examines your cancer and matches treatments to the changes which are particular to your tumour.

Please be aware that: • CMI is a new method and may not be covered by health insurances in your country. This could mean that you have to pay for the service yourself or negotiate with your health insurance provider. • Not all drugs that may be reported as potentially effective may be available or reimbursed in your country. • CMI may help your physician to identify treatment options which have a higher likelihood to work against your cancer, but there is no guarantee that the chosen treatment will work.

Caris is in discussion with private and public health insurances to obtain full coverage. Until then, it is necessary that an alternative mechanism of payment is agreed with Caris before testing can commence. Patient information Payment Information The following payment options are available: You, or a friend or relative, can pay Caris directly for the tumour profiling service. Caris will contact you and provide you with an invoice as soon as we receive a completed Tumour Profiling Requisition Form from your physician. It is therefore necessary that your doctor provides Caris with your contact details when filling in the requisition form. Patient consent Self-pay If you have supplementary or private health insurance, or if you have your healthcare costs covered by another institution such as an embassy or employer, your doctor will need to provide this information on the requisition form, together with the respective contact details. Caris need to have a payment authorisation from the institution before testing can commence. This is usually obtained by your physician. Health Insurances without Pre-Profiling Payment-Authorisation Caris currently has a special program for patients with health insurance companies who have not yet agreed to pay for our tumour profiling service regularly and thus may not yet provide payment authorsation prior to profiling. If your doctor agrees to make a special request for coverage to your health insurance, both prior to and after tumour profiling, Caris will process the case after a modest up front payment has been received. • If the insurance company pays Caris directly, the initial up front payment will be refunded to you. • If the insurance company pays you for the full costs of profiling directly, Caris will invoice you for the balance. Requisition form Third Party Funding (Pre-Authorised Payment by Health Insurances, Embassies, Employers) Pathology information Even if you have already paid for Caris Molecular Intelligence in full, it may be worth applying for coverage from your local health insurance, especially if your doctor selects your next treatment from those indicated on the MI Profile report. Payment Information All payment options will be communicated to you once Caris has received the completed Tumour Profiling Requisition Form from your doctor. Shipping instructions For this purpose, Caris needs your consent that your doctor can share your clinical history, your insurance details and the results of the health insurance application with Caris, in addition to your contact information.
