[Genetics 101] I Have My Patient’s Genetic Testing Results. What Do I Do Now? with Ginger Haynes, MS, CGC, MBA

• Genetic testing results are not always straightforward and patients and providers often need additional resources to help interpret the results in the context of the patient’s personal and family history.  This course will provide an overview of genetic testing results for the non-genetics provider as well as potential resources to aid in the interpretation of those results.

  

  Only the live session qualifies for CEUs but when possible, we host the recordings on our website and NSGC recommends participants to use their personal email instead of work email addresses to ensure they receive their CEU certificates.
