Genetic Counseling SPA Draft

The proposed amendment to the State Plan will allow members to access genetic counseling after genetic testing has found that a member displays clinical features of a suspected genetic condition, is at direct risk of inheriting the genetic condition in question, or has been diagnosed with a condition where identification of specific genetic changes will impact treatment or management. Currently, the State Plan limits this service to women with a high-risk pregnancy.  Please view the draft state plan amendment (SPA) here: Genetic Counseling SPA Draft, and submit comments by 5/6/2017.
