In 2021, I continued working with @radychildrens and @RadyGenomics to build off the success of #ProjectBabyBear and we were successful in expanding Medi-Cal to include coverage of rapid whole genome sequencing for very ill babies up to 1 year old.
Join @WHOSTP & @NICHD_NIH for a free virtual event on 9/22. Dr. Kingsmore will present the #ProjectBabyBear case study for "The Emergence of Clinical Sequencing: Advancing Diagnosis & Improving Clinical Care." More info: https://t.co/iKvJPYsI83
#genomics #WholeGenomeSequencing
As part of #ProjectBabyBear, @CareForKids screened 38 babies using #WholeGenomeSequencing, resulting in 18 diagnoses - more than any other hospital in the study. Get insights into our partnership & how it impacts patients, families, & clinicians. https://t.co/3N5kN4YOis #genomics
Nathan was born with a #RareDisease that affects fewer than 1 in a million kids. After 2 months in the NICU, no tests had given answers. Hope arrived in the form of #ProjectBabyBear & doctors found the "needle in the haystack." https://t.co/UufhUpwWkV

This story from @LaCrosseTribune is another example of the powerful role #GenomeSequencing can play in changing the course of an ill child's life. It also provides the context of several WGS initiatives, including #ProjectBabyBear and #ProjectBabyDeer. https://t.co/OVH9A5YGx3
We are honored to have our paper on #ProjectBabyBear (https://t.co/nvIfAfqWwD) included in the annual @AJHGNews review of 2021's most significant advances and accomplishments in #genomicmedicine.

In its 2021 Year in Review of notable #PrecisionMedicine advances, @ClinicalOMICs recognized the work of #ProjectBabyBear & @RadyGenomics in making the case for healthcare payers to reimburse for life-saving rapid #WholeGenomeSequencing. Read the roundup: https://t.co/aIjdJOr81o
New research in @JPediatr. Analysis revealed 5 key themes re: the #rWGS implementation process across 5 children's hospital sites. Read the full study: https://t.co/Yp2RiQMMis

Our thanks to the members of the CA Senate Health Committee for 10-0 vote on AB114 that would make #WGS a covered Medi-Cal benefit. Onward! #ProjectBabyBear @BMaienschein @radychildrens
#ProjectBabyBear : Rapid precision care (subjects were infants enrolled in #MediCal) incorporating rWGS (rapid Whole Genetic Sequencing) in 5 CA children’s hospitals demonstrates improved clinical outcomes and reduced costs of care. @AJHGNews https://t.co/xCQfkn8Mdl
Our new study in @AJHGNews shows the success of #ProjectBabyBear. Using #rWGS to diagnose infants with #raredisease leads to better health outcomes & lower medical costs. https://t.co/6GAhVIMHtL

Baby Nathan was born with a rare genetic disease. We hope that many more CA kids like Nathan will benefit from the miracle of #rWGS, thanks to AB 114: The Rare Disease Sequencing for Critically Ill Infants Act. https://t.co/pRt90ae0c9 #ProjectBabyBear
@BMaienschein @radychildrens
Thanks to @BMaienschein for authoring The Rare Disease Sequencing for Critically Ill Infants Act. It would make #rWGS a covered #MediCal benefit, increasing access to this life-changing technology for critically-ill kids in the NICU/PICU. https://t.co/DCp9hRUMvC #ProjectBabyBear
Efforts to expand federally-funded access to WGS for kids with #RareDisease received a boost from a briefing convened by @RepScottPeters, & incl @NHGRI_Director, @genome_gov, @AdvaMedDx, @sharonfterry, @GeneticAlliance & @MedicalGenes. https://t.co/wyFQspbwAj #ProjectBabyBear
Thank you Assemblymember @BMaienschein for introducing Assembly Bill #AB114 which would make #rWGS a covered #Medi-Cal benefit, increasing access to this life-changing diagnostic technology for families with critically-ill children in NICU/PICU. #ProjectBabyBear #Genomics
I'm proud to introduce my bill #AB114, which would qualify genomics testing as a covered Medi-Cal benefit. Following the success of #ProjectBabyBear, rapid Whole Genome Sequencing has proven to yield life-changing benefits in diagnosing the exact cause of genetic diseases.
In #ProjectBabyBear, critically ill infants received rapid genomics testing, aiding doctors in determining a diagnosis & course of medical treatment. As a result, the infants received proper treatment and didn't endure suffering due to misdiagnosis.

CA Initiative to Adv #PrecisionMedicine recognized #ProjectBabyBear, which demonstrates the clinical, financial value of using #rWGS to diagnose critically ill babies. @Cal_OPR @radychildrens @chocchildrens @UCSFBenioffOAK @UCDavisChildren @CareForKids

"Time, it turns out, really is money when you’re talking about diagnosing sick kids." The results from #ProjectBabyBear show that using #rWGS to diagnose critically ill babies decreased costs, reduced unnecessary tests & shortened hospital stays. https://t.co/yie8g7TFnS #genomics
