Medicare
The following are the total number of Medical Geneticist PhD Specialists/Technologists who accept Medicare in your State, the number who have opted out of Medicare, and the total number excluded from participation in Medicare nationwide.
The diagram below shows all the Ph.D. Medical Geneticist Specialists & Technologists across the country, represented by blue bubbles. The larger the bubble, the greater the concentration of providers in that area. Red bubbles represent Medicare-excluded providers, with the larger bubbles indicating a higher percentage of excluded providers in that region. You can change the bubble size to be based on exclusions from the Size menu.
What do Medical Geneticist PhD Specialists/Technologists do?
Medical geneticists, PhD specialists, and technologists use advanced genomic, molecular, and cytogenetic testing to diagnose and manage genetic disorders, working in laboratories to analyze samples and help physicians with treatment planning.
Specialists may also provide patient counseling and coordinate screening for genetic conditions, while technologists handle samples, perform testing, and maintain equipment.
Specialists (Medical Geneticists with PhDs)
Diagnose and manage hereditary disorders: They utilize various genetic tests to identify conditions such as congenital disorders, metabolic disorders, and complex genetic syndromes.
Provide genetic counseling: Specialists counsel individuals and families about their genetic conditions, explaining test results and potential implications for lifestyle and reproduction.
Coordinate genetic screenings: They plan and organize programs to screen for and prevent hereditary diseases.
Collaborate on treatment: Specialists work with other healthcare professionals to integrate genetic information into patient care and treatment strategies.
Technologists (Genetic Technologists)
Perform laboratory analysis: They handle, process, and prepare patient samples (such as blood, sputum, and tumor tissue) for genomic and molecular testing.
Run genetic tests: Technologists operate and maintain lab equipment to analyze DNA and chromosomal structures.
Contribute to research: They work on teams to identify genetic variations and may assist with large-scale genomics projects.
Maintain lab operations: Technologists are responsible for the care and calibration of lab equipment to ensure test accuracy.
Environment
Research and public health: Some work in research settings, contributing to efforts to understand and combat diseases through genomic studies.
Clinical laboratories: Both specialists and technologists work in settings where they analyze samples and interpret results to aid in diagnoses.
Healthcare teams collaborate with physicians, nurses, dietitians, and other medical professionals to provide comprehensive patient care.
