Genetic Testing for You & Your Family

At-Home Genetic Testing for Hereditary Diseases and Cancer Risk

Our At-Home Genetic Tests

Our at-home genetic tests give you clear answers about your genetic health, whether you're planning a family, thinking about your inherited cancer risk, or both. Explore our testing options below.

Reproductive Carrier Screening

Know your chances of passing on an inherited condition before or during pregnancy. The reproductive carrier screen is an at-home genetic test that helps individuals and couples understand their risk for having a child with a genetic disease. The carrier panel includes more than 260 diseases, such as Tay-Sachs disease, cystic fibrosis, and sickle cell anemia.

Hereditary Cancer Testing

Know your inherited cancer risk before symptoms appear. The hereditary cancer test is an at-home genetic test that checks 63 genes (including BRCA1 and BRCA2) for changes that increase the risk of cancer, including breast, ovarian, colon, and pancreatic cancer.

Comprehensive Test (Both Tests)

Hereditary cancer testing isn't just about your own risk — for some genes, it's about your future child's, too. Testing together gives you a more comprehensive picture before you start or grow your family, so you can make informed reproductive choices, with a comprehensive picture of your genetic health. Save $29 when you order both.

Costs and Insurance Coverage

jscreen is committed to making carrier screening financially accessible, regardless of your insurance status.

Insurance Billing

Most commercial insurance plans cover carrier testing for individuals and couples planning to start or expand their family. Insurance plans also often cover carrier testing for individuals with Ashkenazi Jewish heritage. Your final cost depends on your family history and specific insurance plan. Our care navigators are here to help you work through the process and connect you with our financial assistance programs as needed.

Self-Pay Option

Prefer not to use insurance? jscreen offers a straightforward, competitive self-pay rate of $249, plus the upfront fee of $49, for a total of $298. This covers lab testing fees, physician review and test ordering, and access to our genetic counselors and care navigators throughout the testing process.

Our Commitment

We believe you deserve to know your genetic risks before you or your family is impacted. A simple saliva test and a conversation can change the trajectory of a family forever.
