PROJECT NARRATIVE The central goal of the proposed research is to determine the cost-effectiveness of integrating whole genome sequencing into the care of healthy adults. We will assess the health impact and cumulative healthcare costs of participants of a randomized clinical trial of whole genome sequencing five years after they received results, and we will extend these analyses over patients' lifetimes using decision analytic models. Findings will inform development of clinical guidelines and reimbursement strategies to accelerate the integration of sequencing into medical care.
