@TheACMG @GeneticCouns So pleased to see this collaboration lead to impactful change! Now we need the Access to Genetic Counselor Services Act passed. I was here yesterday discussing it with my rep's office. Are you doing your part?

BTW loving the rainbow flag out front.

ACMG is pleased to have collaborated with @GeneticCouns to get a new CPT® code, 96041, for #geneticcounselors. 96041 captures total GC time on day of encounter instead of only face-to-face time. More on the full 2025 code set is available at https://t.co/hljGbRhoCT #medicalgenetics

Wow – this chapter is something special! @PeiJacquie, @DrKMcLachlan, Jessica Joseph, and Mansfield Mela address the vulnerabilities, intersections, and impact of the justice system for FASD and how an FASD-informed response can make a difference.

[Dr. Christie Petrenko @clpetrenko]

We lead the first of our book highlights with Heather Carmichael Olson and her team who win the award for the longest chapter. But don’t let that daunt you! This engaging and practical chapter has something for everyone on FASD-informed care and should not be missed!
