Building a Genetics Service Requires More Than Selecting a Test
Cohesion Phenomics works with cardiovascular organizations developing new genetics programs as well as established programs seeking to strengthen or expand existing capabilities.
We begin by understanding how patients, providers, genetic testing, laboratory services, reimbursement, and follow-up currently move through the organization. From that assessment, we help develop practical pathways that integrate genetics into existing cardiovascular care rather than creating a parallel system.
BUILD
For organizations establishing or expanding cardiovascular genetics capabilities.
We help develop the clinical, genetic, and operational foundations needed to incorporate genetics into cardiovascular care.
INTEGRATE
For established programs seeking to embed genetics more effectively across cardiovascular services.
We help connect clinical care, genetic testing, molecular expertise, patient navigation, reimbursement, and program operations into coordinated pathways.
OPTIMIZE
For programs seeking to improve access, utilization, reimbursement, and overall program performance.
We help identify barriers, strengthen processes, and support the continued development and sustainability of cardiovascular genetics services.
Build, Integrate, and Optimize represent different entry points based on the needs and maturity of each organization rather than a fixed sequence.
