Northwell Health Genomics Alliance

The Northwell Health Genomics Alliance is a strategic venture between Northwell Health and BioReference Laboratories, an OPKO Health subsidiary, to drive the use of medically necessary genomic testing to improve patient care. The alliance provides genomic testing, molecular diagnostic testing, and ancillary support services such as genetic counseling. An essential element of the alliance is a shared database consisting of annotated genomic data with detailed clinical information, which will help build the evidence base for the medical necessity of genomic and genetic testing in clinical practice.
