As the appetite for clinical genetic testing grows, it seems the demand for geneticists able to provide the needed services outpaces the supply. Yet health services do not have a way to measure that growth or the resources needed to provide those services. In a recent study published in GIM, researchers describe a new framework for evaluating the resource needs of clinical genetics services, including recent huge increases in genetic testing and the accompanying counseling. In the August Genepod, host Cynthia Graber talks with lead study author Andrew Fennell about the new framework, its current limitations and how clinicians can use it now to plan for the future.
