This article covers the overall timeline for insurance-billed testing, from your first counseling appointment through receiving your results.
Genetic counseling appointment: Typically available within one week. The appointment lasts 30–60 minutes.
Sample collection kit: If you proceed with testing, you can expect to receive your kit within approximately one week.
Results: Results generally follow the same 4–6 week timeline described in “When Will I Receive My Results?” For insurance-billed testing specifically, this can take longer if your insurance carrier requires prior authorization before testing can proceed.
