Improve Patient Care With Risk Assessment & Education

Our RISE Patient Engagement Modules™ can help you Reach, Inform, Support and Educate patients to increase access to genetic services and support patient decision-making. RISE™ modules span the continuum of genetics care including scheduling, hereditary cancer risk assessment, patient triage and patient education.

Identify Patients at Risk for Hereditary Cancer

Early identification of patients at risk for hereditary cancer is crucial for prevention, diagnosis and treatment. But clinical guidelines are complicated, dynamic and challenging to integrate into clinical practice.

Fewer than 1 in 5 patients who meet guidelines for hereditary cancer testing are appropriately identified. Our digital risk assessment module can help you improve screening and care.
