Patient and Family Preferences on Health System-Led Direct Contact for Cascade Screening

10 Jun 2021

Abstract excerpt

Health benefits to relatives of people at known genetic risk for hereditary cancer syndromes is key to realizing the promise of precision medicine. We conducted a qualitative study to design a patient- and family-centered program for direct contact of relatives to recommend cascade genetic testing. We conducted two rounds of data collection using focus groups followed by individual interviews with patients with...
