Excerpt

Clinical practice guidelines are condition- or disease-specific recommendations for the appropriate health care management of patients. Because guidelines can differ between different organizations, the National Academies Roundtable on Genomics and Precision Health and National Cancer Policy Forum hosted a public workshop in October 2024 to explore how clinical guidelines can impact the adoption and coverage of genomic testing in routine medical care.
