Medication trial and error can feel frustrating

We know the process of finding medications for mental health conditions like depression, anxiety or ADHD can be time-consuming and debilitating. The GeneSight^® test may help.

What is the GeneSight Psychotropic test?

The GeneSight Psychotropic test is a genetic test that shows your healthcare provider how your genes may affect medication outcomes.

The GeneSight test may reveal which medications to treat depression, anxiety, ADHD, and other mental health conditions that:

Require dose adjustments
Be less likely to work
Have an increased risk of side effects based on your DNA

Is the GeneSight test right for you?

Has a mental health medication failed you in the past?

We offer a financial assistance plan for eligible patients to help with the cost of the GeneSight test. Use our cost estimator to see if you qualify.

If your cost is $100 or more, we offer an interest-free payment plan to spread out the cost for up to 12 months.

The GeneSight^® Promise

If you decide to use your insurance and we determine that your cost will exceed $330, we will contact you before processing the test and before billing you to make sure you would like to proceed.

Reduced self-pay option

All patients are eligible for the reduced self-pay option of $330. Self-pay may be the most affordable option for patients whose out-of-pocket cost is estimated to be higher than $330, for those whose insurance does not cover the GeneSight test, or for those without insurance.
