Abstract

Cancer and cardiometabolic diseases are the leading causes of morbidity and mortality, as well as decreased productivity and cost drivers for employers. Risk assessment, prevention and screening guidelines are readily available but underutilized. Lack of timely interventions results in more late and complex disease identification, expensive treatment and lower survival rates. Population-based genetic testing strategies outperform clinical criteria and family history strategies. ACMG guidelines suggest reporting of actionable cancer and cardiometabolic findings.
