Summary

The purpose of this study is to compare the uptake of genetic testing among patients randomized with two different models of genetic services delivery (a patient-directed model and an enhanced standard of care model) and examine whether the impact on uptake differs by race/ethnicity and rurality. This study will also compare the effect of these delivery models on adherence to cancer prevention and screening recommendations and other patient responses.

Patient Directed Standard of Care

The pre-test genetic counseling visit will be conducted through access to an automated genetics education assistant accessed through the patient portal. The automated approach will address all the components of the pre-test counseling and contains content designed by the genetic counselors at the University of Utah and NYU. Patients will have the option to contact genetic counselors through the patient portal, by phone, or in person but this will not be required. All results will be reviewed by a genetic counselor. Negative results will be returned by the automated genetics education assistant. Genetic counselors will return results for pathogenic variants and variants of uncertain significance via phone.
