OAKLAND, CALIFORNIA, UNITED STATES-- Genome Medical and xCures have joined forces to provide patients with a new level of personalized care. Through this collaboration, Genome Medical's genetic counselors will have access to xCures' comprehensive care summaries for patients based on electronic medical records from across the healthcare ecosystem. This information will be used to better inform the treatment of Genome Medical patients.
Genome Medical's national reach and industry-leading genetic counseling services deliver critical insights and care to patients as they understand the risk factors and genetic implications of their conditions.
"Together, we are delivering the knowledge and data that is vital for precision medicine," said Mika Newton, CEO of xCures. "Our real-time clinical data offers unique insights for patients and providers in their fight against cancer."
“We look forward to collaborating with xCures to deliver an enhanced level of care to our patients and with an even more complete view of the patient’s health background,” said Jill Davies, CEO of Genome Medical. “This collaboration will have a great impact on the patients we serve, with the potential for an even greater impact on population health through enhanced research for oncology and other inherited diseases.”
Incorporating xCures’ real-world clinical data into the comprehensive Genome Medical genetic counseling sessions is another example of both companies’ mission to help integrate powerful genetic insights into a patient’s health journey. It brings to life the promise of genomic medicine, making genetic information clinically actionable for patients and their providers while supporting providers in their efforts to deliver genetic services at-scale.
The companies will also collaborate with researchers to use the aggregated knowledge gathered from this initiative to further research and treatment that has the potential to improve care and outcomes across care settings. With this exciting new collaboration, Genome Medical and xCures are revolutionizing patient care and shaping the future of connected health.
