Mission
The Policy Working Group seeks to analyze policy issues in the implementation of genomic tools and knowledge into health care delivery.
Goals
- Implement policies for new and existing genomic technologies into clinal care.
- Develop an asset map for policies that exist or that are needed for genomic medicine implementation associated with the patient care pathway.
- Maintain a catalog of genomic medicine policies around the world.
- Analyze and develop the policy agenda to support G2MC Flagship Projects.
The Policy Working Group has a program of activities that currently incorporates the development of:
- A web-based resource that provides information on genomic medicine implementation initiatives and related policy issues as well as links to relevant resources and organizations.
- A roadmap for implementation of genomic medicine – outlining policy issues for consideration.
Genomics Policy Website
The Genomics Policy Website (link is external) provides information on policy approaches to facilitate the integration of genomics into healthcare. It includes a catalog of global genomic medicine implementation initiatives. It also provides links to relevant organizations, events, and media.
