Referrals
As providers, it can be challenging to find accurate clinic and contact information when referring our patients to different genetic specialties.
To improve this process, Arizona Genetic Counselor Contact List was created. The purpose of this document is to help healthcare providers refer their patients to genetic counseling services.

According to the NSGC Business Case whitepaper published in 2021, business cases are tools created and used to convince your target audience that the idea/service/product you are pitching is a good investment to solve a problem.
Common business case elements include:
-
what is being offered and why
-
an analysis of the market (including gaps that can be filled)
-
the financial/resource impact of implementing the idea
Business cases can be used to hire and argue for the utilization of genetic counselors.

The AGA has developed business cases to argue for employment of genetic counselors in several areas of genetics.
