GeneSight® at Home

Providing a simple, efficient way for you to take the GeneSight test from the comfort and privacy of your own home

What is the GeneSight test?

We know the process of finding medications that work can be frustrating, time-consuming and debilitating.

That’s why we created the GeneSight test.

The results of the test can inform your healthcare provider about how you may break down or respond to certain mental health medications. Finding the medication that works for you can help you finally start feeling like yourself again.

How GeneSight Works

Why GeneSight at Home?

Convenient

Efficient

Trust

Exceptional Customer Service

For some, suffering from depression, anxiety or other mental health conditions, it can be a struggle just to leave the house. For some providers, the percentage of patients they see in-office is dropping in favor of virtual visits. We’re removing barriers like these with GeneSight at Home.

With the same technology used for the in-office GeneSight test, we’ve created an easy-to-follow Patient Collection Kit that’s sent directly to you or your patient’s home office once a registered healthcare provider orders the test in our portal. Once completed at home, the kit is sent to our lab, and results are processed in a few days. It’s that simple.

The GeneSight test process

The GeneSight test is administered by your healthcare provider in their office or at the comfort of your own home.
