Your path to more personalized medication decisions
Pharmacogenomics (PGx) is a branch of precision medicine dedicated to understanding how genetic variants contribute to different responses to the same drug in different patients.

One size does not fit all.
Drug effectiveness varies among individuals, with response rates for many medications ranging from 50% to 75%.¹ A significant factor contributing to this variability is the patient's genetic makeup.

How PGx can help in patient care
How PGx can help in patient care
PGx testing offers healthcare teams valuable insights into how an individual's DNA may influence medication outcomes, enabling more informed decisions in patient care.
PGx testing offers healthcare teams valuable insights into how an individual's DNA may influence medication outcomes, enabling more informed decisions in patient care.
> 90% of patients have clinically actionable genetic variants.²
The FDA has an extensive list of pharmacogenomic biomarkers for drugs on the market today.³
Adverse drug reactions result in 1.5 million ER visits annually.⁴

frequently asked questions
How do I order a test?
Tests can be ordered through the Provider Portal or by completing a paper Test Requisition Form.
How long does it take to receive the results?
It typically takes 3-4 weeks from the time a sample is mailed in to receiving the results in our secure provider portal. This timeframe reflects the complexity and precision of our process, as we partner with leading institution labs that adhere to clinical-grade quality control standards. We ensure that every step, from sample analysis to data interpretation, meets the highest level of accuracy and reliability.
Where do I access the results?
Healthcare providers can access their patients' results through the Provider Portal. In some instances, Strand offers direct integration with your EMR system. Contact us today to see if your EMR is supported for integration.
Is this test covered by insurance?
Proactive genetic screening is not covered by insurance, but it is typically eligible for HSA/FSA reimbursement. If you believe your patient may qualify for a diagnostic genetic test, please contact the Strand support team to assist in determining their eligibility.
What if I have questions about the results?
If a genetic mutation is found in your test results, Strand will provide expert counseling and collaborate with your healthcare provider to create a comprehensive health action plan. If you don't have a provider, we'll assist in finding one, ensuring you have a clear plan with actionable steps and resources to empower you on your healthcare journey.
