Dr Jan Berger Says Genetic Testing "Takes a Village"

Genetic and companion testing takes a village, according to Jan Berger, MD, MJ, president and chief executive officer of Health Intelligence Partners and editor-in-chief of The American Journal of Pharmacy Benefits.

Not only do the providers need to be in line, but so do the genetic counselors — if they’re available — and the industry is struggling with that as well as knowing the right processes to go through, she explained.

“So I think we need to come to a consensus on the right timing and the right process to put this all together to get the outcomes we’re looking for,” Dr Berger said.
