There are 3-4 companies like Invitae (and not 23andMe) that genetic counselors send their tests to for analysis and treatment coordination with the MD.
Like another comment said, I think the DNA data 23andMe gets from their swabs and analysis is likely inferior from a drug-dev standpoint vs. what the pro firms do linked with the genetic counseling teams.
In that light, 23andMe's options don't look good. However, probably good news for the patient. As I was told by a genetic counselor at one of the main hospital systems that do this, a bulk of their work is rolling back expectations from patients who did 23AM first, and then when to a GC.
