As the cost of DNA testing has reduced significantly, the number of genetic tests conducted has increased. Actionable variants identified in public genome databases has allowed genetics to be integrated into mainstream medicine.
More and more genetic tests are accepted by health insurance plans. But any test that is accepted by health insurance must be fully validated to ascertain that deserving patients get the benefit while identifying and filtering out cases which do not need genetic testing, this is the process of pre-authorization.
Currently, there is only 1 genetic counselor for 80,000 US population. Apart from routine counseling, genetic counselors are also required for the health insurance pre-authorization process. Non availability of GCs means increased wait times for patients. Additionally, complex cases that require expensive genetic tests also require an independent case review from external genetic counselors.
