Karyogene Lab Genetics is committed to providing the highest-quality service to help you deliver exceptional care to your patients. Our priority is the patient. We work with our clients to ensure that genetic testing is ordered appropriately, even if that means that we perform fewer tests. Karyogene team of genetic counselors routinely reviews all complex genetic test orders to ensure proper test utilization and will recommend test order modification when appropriate. These efforts have helped our clients improve patient care by canceling duplicate, inappropriate, and unnecessary tests, saving time, money, and potentially preventing missed diagnoses. Our routine review of complex test orders has proven to save clients thousands of dollars each month. Working in partnership with healthcare providers, Karyogene Lab genetic counselors discuss the clinical indication for testing, along with any other pertinent information, to ensure that the testing ordered will provide the information needed in the most cost-effective manner possible. This partnership ensures that the most clinically appropriate, and often less expensive, tests are performed.
