Building an infrastructure to enable delivery of genomic medicine

To meaningfully address health disparities in access to genomic testing, major developments in the infrastructure to support delivery of care are needed. The current value chain for delivering genomic medicine is fragmented, with poor communication between the stakeholders who order, perform, and reimburse for genetic tests. Standards, connectivity, and scaled expertise are needed to reach more people equitably and achieve healthcare returns on society's investments in genomics. As the costs of genetically‐targeted therapeutics and treatments rise, a mature infrastructure to support the delivery of genetic tests becomes critical.
