Healthcare utilization and behavior changes following workplace genetic testing at a large U.S. healthcare system

From the abstract: " This study explored employee health behavior changes and healthcare utilization following workplace genetic testing (wGT). Wellness program-associated wGT seeks to improve employee health, but related health implications are unknown. Methods: Employees of a large U.S. healthcare system offering wGT (cancer, heart disease, and pharmacogenomics - PGx) were sent electronic surveys. Self-reported data from those who received test results were analyzed. Descriptive statistics characterized responses, while logistic regression analyses explored correlates of responses to wGT."
