Join us for an insightful webinar featuring Dr. Michael Gattas, clinical geneticist and Brooke Schiffmann, genetics counsellor, as they break down essential genetic concepts, including autosomal dominant inheritance. They will also explore the latest changes to Medicare eligibility for breast cancer gene testing, with updates on MBS item numbers 73295 and 73296.
Additionally, we’ll address key insurance considerations and delve into the vital role of genetic counsellors, what they do, the testing they offer, and how they support patients through the genetic journey. Attendees will gain valuable insights into identifying key characteristics in patients and families that may indicate the need for a genetic referral.
