Medicare

The following are the total number of Clinical Biochemical Geneticists 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 Clinical Biochemical Geneticists 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 Clinical Biochemical Geneticists do?

Clinical biochemical genetics physicians diagnose, treat, and manage inherited metabolic disorders by interpreting specialized laboratory tests and providing both direct patient care and consultation. 

They also act as laboratory directors, oversee specialized biochemical testing, and help develop new treatments through research and clinical trials. 

What they do

Patient care: Provide comprehensive diagnosis, management, and genetic counseling for individuals of all ages with inherited metabolic disorders, such as amino acid, organic acid, and lysosomal storage diseases. 

Laboratory oversight: Direct and interpret a wide range of specialized biochemical laboratory analyses used to diagnose and manage these disorders. 

Consultation: Act as a consultant to other medical professionals regarding the laboratory diagnosis of biochemical genetic disorders. 

Treatment: Work with other healthcare professionals, such as metabolic dietitians, to create and manage patient treatment plans, including nutritional recommendations. 

Research and development: May participate in developing new treatments and enrolling patients in clinical trials for their conditions. 

Quality control: Ensure the quality and accuracy of laboratory testing and maintain the clinical laboratory’s operations. 

How they work with patients

Direct care: Interact with patients directly, from infancy through adulthood, often including newborn screening follow-ups. 

Counseling: Counsel and educate patients and their families about their diagnosis and management. 

Medical home: Act as a medical home for their patients, providing comprehensive care for their metabolic health. 

How they work with laboratories

Troubleshooting: Manage and troubleshoot laboratory procedures and evaluate new techniques. 

Test interpretation: Interpret the results of specialized tests, such as those measuring amino acids, organic acids, and enzyme activity. 

Diagnostic methods: Develop and implement testing methods, perform data calculations, and establish systematic controls.
