Individuals tested through the PTC Pinpoint™ CP Spectrum program are eligible for post-test genetic counseling to help them understand their test results. This service is provided through GeneMatters, a third-party genetic counseling service, and is made available by Invitae at no charge as part of the program.
Patients can access genetic counseling by having their provider:
1. Complete the referral form
2. Attach the genetic test results to the referral form
3. Fax both the referral form and the genetic test results to GeneMatters at 612-808-5186
Patients will then be contacted by GeneMatters to schedule an appointment.
If a positive result is identified, testing for your patient’s family members is available.
Simply follow the ordering instructions, selecting only the gene(s) you are interested in testing for the family member. The partner code will automatically be added with the order.
