Let’s Talk About It – Discussion Questions

Can you tell us a bit about your laboratory/institution?

• Hospital overview/type/size; size of lab

• What type of testing do you do? Volume?

• Types of genetic conditions tested for? Germline/Somatic

• Types of physicians receiving genetic testing reports?

Let’s Talk About It – Discussion Questions

Why did you decide it was important to create a precision medicine/genetic

testing program at your institution?

• How are you making it a reality?

• Clinical care/quality drivers

• Business/differentiation drivers

• Importance of leveraging data across the care continuum, EMR connectivity

Let’s Talk About It – Discussion Questions

What are major challenges you’ve faced, particularly around managing all of the

data genetic testing produces?

• How have you met these challenges?

• What advice would you give to someone starting a precision medicine program?

• Workflow, compliance, data management, reporting, interpretation challenges

• Variant assessment

• How are you addressing reimbursement challenges around genetic testing?

Let’s Talk About It – Discussion Questions

With new information about genes and their disease associations emerging

daily, how do you provide the most up-to-date and accurate interpretations of

your genetic testing and ensure you are not missing anything?

• Shared/Pooled information sharing, collaboration

• Curated content for decision-support, knowledge-base

• Data filtration/annotation support

• Tumor Board
