Common Questions About GeneSight Pharmacogenomic Testing
What is GeneSight testing?
GeneSight is a pharmacogenomic test that analyzes your DNA to identify how your genetic profile may affect how you metabolize and respond to certain psychiatric medications. At Blue Heart Services, GeneSight testing is offered following a mental health evaluation to help guide more personalized psychiatric medication decisions.
How does GeneSight testing work?
GeneSight uses a simple cheek swab to collect a DNA sample. The sample is analyzed for genetic variants that can affect how your body processes certain medications. Results are provided to your psychiatric NP to help inform medication selection and dosing as part of your treatment plan.
Why would I need GeneSight testing?
If you have tried multiple psychiatric medications without finding the right fit, or if your provider wants to take a more precise approach to medication selection, GeneSight can provide useful clinical information. It helps reduce trial and error in psychiatric medication management.
Does GeneSight tell me which medications to take?
GeneSight provides information about how your genes may affect your response to certain medications — it does not prescribe or dictate your treatment. The decision is always made by your psychiatric NP in conversation with you, using the test results as one of several clinical inputs.
Is GeneSight testing covered by insurance?
Coverage varies by insurance plan. Many plans cover GeneSight when ordered by a psychiatric provider as part of a treatment plan. Call Blue Heart Services at 513.790.3033 to discuss your coverage options.
