What exactly does Geneformation offer?
Geneformation provides a personalized report based on a confirmed genetic diagnosis. We review specialized genetic databases and the latest scientific literature to offer insights on gene variants, including their function, associated conditions, potentially available treatments, ongoing research, and connections to relevant patient advocacy groups. When variant-specific data is limited, we also include broader information on the gene to help you better understand your case.
How is this service different from what my doctor provides?
While your doctor diagnoses and recommends treatments, they may not have the time to conduct extensive research on rare genetic conditions. Our service delves deeper by offering detailed, research-based insights that complement your doctor’s advice. The comprehensive report we provide is designed to empower you with additional information that can support your discussions with your medical team.
Who can benefit from Geneformation?
Our reports are specifically designed for cases with a confirmed genetic diagnosis. If you do not have a genetic diagnosis, our service may not be applicable. We recommend consulting your healthcare provider to explore diagnostic options if needed.
How long does it take to receive the report?
Once you submit your confirmed genetic diagnosis, it typically takes between 21 and 28 business days to compile and deliver your comprehensive report. This timeframe allows us to ensure that the information is thorough, up-to-date, and tailored to your specific case.
What can I do with the report once I receive it?
The report equips you with detailed insights into the genetic condition, enabling you to share it with your medical team to inform treatment decisions, connect with patient advocacy groups for additional support, and engage with researchers or experts for further information.
Can I consult with someone if I have questions about the report?
Yes, after receiving your report you have the option to schedule a follow-up discussion. This session is designed to address any questions, clarify findings, and help you explore the available options for moving forward based on the report’s insights.
What if there is no available treatment for my child’s condition?
Our report not only highlights any current treatment options but also provides information on investigated treatments and potential treatment approaches that may be applicable to your case. We understand that for many rare genetic conditions there is no commercially available treatment, so our focus is on offering a holistic view that includes ongoing research and emerging possibilities.
Is there a cost for the introductory call?
No, the introductory call is completely free. It is an opportunity for us to discuss your case, understand your concerns, and explore how our service can best assist you before you commit to the full report.
How much does the service cost?
Our service is offered at a fixed fee of $1500. This fee ensures that you receive a comprehensive, research-based report tailored to your genetic diagnosis.
