As the era of precision medicine is upon us and more patients are having genetic sequencing performed, we need to be able to utilize this genomic data to improve health. How can we effectively incorporate this new type of information into a healthcare system to support patient care? This talk addresses the challenges and benefits of integrating genomic information into patient care through discussion of research and innovative care models being developed for genomics at Geisinger Health Systems.
