From 2004 to 2024, the Health Resources and Services Administration (HRSA) funded the National Coordinating Center for the Regional Genetics Networks (NCC). NCC developed and maintained the Genetics Policy Hub.

 

With the conclusion of NCC funding, the Genetics Policy Hub (GPH) will no longer be updated or maintained. Information on GPH should be used for historical reference only.

Medicaid Coverage

Each year, an analysis is conducted of each state’s Medicaid program to examine what each program states they cover related to genetic services. The database only uses publicly available coverage policies to see when genetics is covered for children, specific criteria for when genetic services are covered, medical food coverage, and coverage of specific genetic tests. Click on the map below to learn more about your state’s policies.

The database is not meant to indicate or imply whether a certain program will cover a specific service, since many decisions are made on a case by case basis. If you have specific questions about whether a service is covered, you should reach out to your plan administrator. Please scroll to the bottom for the database disclaimer.
