Probably Genetic offers two pathways to genetic testing:
Insurance-billed testing - If you don’t qualify for free testing, you may qualify for the insurance program, where you’ll be connected with a board-certified genetic counselor who can pursue testing through your insurance. Most patients pay little to nothing - see “How much will this cost me?” for more details.
Free (no-cost) testing - Funded through partnerships with patient advocacy groups, researchers, and pharmaceutical developers for specific genetic conditions. Because funding is limited, we have a set number of tests available at any time, and eligibility is based on how closely your profile matches an active program. If approved, testing is completely free - no insurance required.
Why do we ask for insurance information even if testing is free?
We collect it so we can evaluate all your options at once. If you don’t qualify for free testing, we can immediately check whether insurance-billed testing is an option - without extra steps. Providing insurance information does not mean you will be billed.
How it works (both pathways start the same way)
- Create a profile and complete your symptom and health assessment at https://chat.probablygenetic.com/
- Your assessment is typically reviewed within two weeks
- You’ll be notified by email and in your profile whether you qualify for free testing or insurance-billed testing
- If approved for insurance-billed testing, you’ll be connected with a board-certified genetic counselor and will need to schedule your pre-test genetic counseling appointment - at no cost to you.
