Ordering
The Laboratory for Molecular Medicine at Partners HealthCare Personalized Medicine offers genetic testing for various inherited diseases and disorders, as well as, genome sequencing.
To order a test at the LMM, the following is needed:
- A health care provider to order the test (i.e., geneticist, cardiologist, genetic counselor). A patient cannot order a genetic test for him/herself.
- A completed requisition and consent form for the test being ordered (see requisition forms for the disease-specific forms).
- A blood or saliva sample to run the test (see sample requirements).
- Determine how payment for the test will be made (see methods of payment).
Please send the completed requisition and consent form along with the sample to the Laboratory for Molecular Medicine (see shipping).
Once testing is completed, the health care provider will receive a report and discuss the test results.
