Who should consider taking this test?

Anyone interested in learning more about their personal health risk can get tested. The panel is designed for individuals of all ancestries and includes hereditary cancer risks found in people of all different backgrounds.

Testing is especially important for individuals with a personal and/or family history of cancer and those with Ashkenazi Jewish ancestry.

While the test is available to anyone age 18 or older, we often recommend waiting until approximately age 25 depending on family history and other factors.

How long will it take to get results?

Your kit should arrive 7-10 business days after you complete all registration forms. Test results are provided in an easy to understand report typically available within 3-4 weeks of the sample arriving at the lab. You will have an opportunity to discuss your results with a genetic counselor.

Will genetic testing be covered by my insurance?

Insurance coverage largely depends on whether your personal and family history of cancer meets established medical guidelines (clinical criteria). For those who meet criteria, 95% of private insurance companies cover testing and 90% of tested customers pay $0 out-of-pocket through coverage and financial assistance (Myriad Genetics data).

If you do not have insurance coverage or you have a high unmet deductible, you can choose to forgo insurance and opt for the self-pay price of $249 for your test. If you cannot afford testing, there are financial assistance programs available for those who qualify.
