Summary:The process also expands patient access to a genetic counselor, thereby offering pre- and post-test counseling which increases patient autonomy in decision-making about genetic testing and follow-up options. [...]the Progenity genetic counselor team and affiliated genetic counseling graduate training programs have experienced multiple benefits of transitioning to virtual student rotations. Progenity has confirmed its commitment to genetic counselor education by doubling the number of genetic counselors who coordinate student rotations, meaning we are facilitating more student interactions, with a more varied group of genetic counselors.
