Effect of ambiguous hemochromatosis gene test results on physician utilization.

Medical care - 1 May 2012

Speechley Mark, Alter David, Guo Helen, Harrison Helen, Adams Paul C

Abstract excerpt

BACKGROUND: Genetic test results may be available to greater numbers of people through genetic screening projects and other means. The effects of widespread genetic testing and notification of genetic test results, particularly added costs through increased physician utilization, have not been clearly established. METHODS: A primary care-based cohort of 20,306 participants (Hemochromatosis and Iron Overload...
