Over 75,000 genetic tests exist on the market, magnifying a host of issues with regulation, prior authorization and health equity. The AMA is taking action to provide physicians with research, advocacy and education in navigating precision medicine.

Through research and partnerships, the AMA is the foremost thought leader for the ethical, clinical implementation of precision medicine.
