PLEASE RT💜🧬: The final report of our genetic discrimination project is out today at doi.org/10.26180/23564… It makes clear recommendations to the Aus government to prohibit the use of genetic test results in risk-rated insurance underwriting. A thread about our findings... 1/5

Imagine if we had a genetic counselling workforce that could also bill Medicare for their time and expertise assisting couples to navigate this...

Might have some extra wrinkles, but this 🧵 still true. Genetic counsellors are underpaid, under utilised due to lack of promoted autonomy, limited by a rejected Medicare item no. & upheld medical hierarchy, & lack of career pathways. Have to keep fighting for a 💺 at table #GCAD

What do you call a bunch of genetic counsellors at Parliament House? A FORCE! 💥 Well, a force that will build rapport, ask about your family and support you through challenging genomic medicine decisions. And if that happens, let’s hope our workforce is properly funded #GCAD

The closing speech by Kate Riley eloquently captured the essence of what genetic counselling is about ‘we can’t change individuals DNA or their personal experience but what we do offer is a supportive, caring environment that support families through difficult times’
