If you know which test you want to order and how to order it, please select the appropriate tile to access all relevant guidance and forms.
Providing comprehensive information using the right forms helps to ensure the right tests are run for the right patients. Every request should be appropriate with patient eligibility checked and confirmed and all relevant clinical information included. Testing will not be activated without all of this in place. Please check the latest version of the National Genomic Test Directory to ensure your patient is eligible for testing.
