PGx Medical specializes in pharmacogenetic testing. So what makes us different?
Almost daily we receive a phone call that asks the question, “we were approached by a lab that just started doing pharmacogenetic testing. What makes you different?”
To start with, Metabolic Validation, via pharmacogenetic testing is ALL we do. Our team of consultants travel around the country educating and implementing this no-cost drug response tool that can help healthcare professionals put together a clinical action plan to guide their choice of therapy and dose for each individual patient.
The term “personalized medicine” is just that. Tailored to each individual person to let you know what medications they metabolize, and which ones they don’t. Pharmacogenetic testing (PGx) can stop the guessing by providing information about the metabolic phenotype of your patient.
PGx Medical offers healthcare professionals education on the program, clinical staff to perform the swab, and test results that are ready within 48 hours on your personal online portal. Once results are ready to view, your PGx Medical consultant will schedule a time to review results with you and answer any questions you might have. Helping you implement results with your patients to get the best medical outcome.
But we don’t stop there. Your consultant will contact you on a monthly or bi-monthly basis, whichever you prefer, to answer questions, supply more test kits, or just walk you through the process to allow you to incorporate the program into your facility and make it part of your day to day patient care.
Who pays for the test?
Medicare B covers the test 100% and we do not balance bill. And most private insurance companies cover the test minus normal co-pays and deductibles. Our lab tests 19 genes and receptor sites giving you the whole picture to help clinicians make individualized prescribing decisions. And PGx Medical handles all billing to help eliminate additional work for your staff. Our program helps you, help your residents live longer…better!
A no-cost tool, that will help manage medications, and provide your patients with a better quality of life. And be rest assured, we won’t ever sell you a test kit and walk out the door. Our program is designed to be a Long Term Medication Management tool for you and your patients.
