Frequently Asked Questions

How do I know if family variant counseling and testing is right for me?

Family variant counseling and testing is right for you if a family member has been found to carry a disease-causing variant through an Invitae test AND you have a copy of your family member’s test results (or can get a copy before your appointment).

Will insurance cover the genetic test?

Most insurance companies will cover the test. Through Invitae Family Variant Testing, Invitae will perform family variant testing at no additional charge for all blood relatives of the original family member that received a pathogenic or likely pathogenic result through Invitae. Order must be placed within 150 days of the original family member's test report. After 150 days, family variant testing can be submitted for reimbursement to your insurance or is available at a reduced cost.

What do I do with the results?

You can consult with a genetic expert to go over your results, and at your request, we can communicate your results with your doctor.

Should minors get genetic testing?

While guidelines by the National Society of Genetic Counselors, American College of Medical Genetics, and the American Society of Human Genetics do not recommend predictive genetic testing for adult onset conditions until age 18, minors should get tested early for certain conditions. Some conditions manifest in childhood and might have effective medical interventions.

Will getting genetic testing have implications on my health, life, or disability insurance?

There are laws, such as the Genetic Information Nondiscrimination Act (GINA), that protect patients from genetic discrimination. To learn more about these laws, please visit ginahelp.org.
