Genetic testing can tell you what your patients can’t

Fewer than 50% of patients with depression respond to their first prescribed medication and with each failed medication trial, their treatment intolerance increases.1

Consider offering the GeneSight test to:

  • New patients with a previous medication failure
  • Patients who are experiencing lower than desired medication response
  • Patients who are currently experiencing unwanted side effects
  • Elderly patients and patients with liver damage

What is the GeneSight® test?

The GeneSight Psychotropic test is a pharmacogenomic test that analyzes clinically important genetic variations which may impact how your patient metabolizes and responds to certain medications used to treat depression, anxiety, ADHD, and other psychiatric conditions.

The test is a powerful tool to augment your knowledge, experience, and passion for your patients.

Tens of thousands of clinicians have ordered the GeneSight test for

patients and counting

A Comprehensive Report, Personalized for your Patient.

The GeneSight Psychotropic report may help you avoid multiple medication trials by providing information about which medications may require dose adjustments, be less likely to work, or have an increased risk of side effects based on your patient’s genetic information.

The report also includes information on how a patient’s smoking status may affect their body’s metabolism of certain medications.

Cost shouldn’t be a barrier to the GeneSight test.

Our goal is to make the GeneSight test affordable and accessible to patients. Insurance can be complicated, and we want you to feel comfortable ordering the test for your patients.

We will bill your patient’s insurance for the cost of the GeneSight test:

Medicaid Typically, $0 out of pocket cost
Medicare Advantage Covered Tests Patient may be expected to cover a portion of the cost (typically $330 or less)

Remission: 70% relative improvement and 7% absolute improvement in remission rates
Response: 42% relative improvement and 8% absolute improvement in response rates
Symptom Improvement: 23% relative improvement and 5% absolute improvement in symptoms
