Medicare
The following are the total number of Medical 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 Medical 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 Medical Biochemical Geneticists do?
Medical biochemical geneticists diagnose, treat, and manage inherited metabolic disorders in patients of all ages.
They are medical doctors with subspecialty training in evaluating, preventing, and treating diseases caused by genetic defects in biochemical processes.
This involves a combination of clinical expertise with laboratory knowledge to provide care, interpret test results, and counsel patients and their families.
What they do
Oversee lab testing: In some roles, they may also direct clinical laboratories that perform the necessary biochemical and genetic analyses.
Diagnose and treat metabolic disorders: They evaluate patients with conditions such as amino acid disorders, urea cycle defects, and lysosomal storage diseases from infancy through adulthood.
Provide direct and consultative care: They offer clinical assessment, management, and counseling for both new and established patients, including those who are acutely ill.
Interpret laboratory results: They understand and interpret biochemical genetic testing, such as mass spectrometry, to help diagnose and monitor patients’ conditions.
Consult with other medical professionals: They act as consultants for other doctors on the diagnosis and management of these complex genetic disorders.
Coordinate patient care: They work with a team of other healthcare professionals, including nurses, dietitians, and social workers, to provide comprehensive care.
Manage and counsel families: They help families understand the impact of the disorder, provide anticipatory guidance, and discuss genetic counseling and prevention strategies.
