Washington Agreed Order for Genetic Testing is a legal document which outlines the requirements for genetic testing in the state of Washington. It ensures that genetic testing is done in a responsible and ethical manner, with the patient's consent and to the highest standards. The order includes standards for the collection of samples, the type of tests that can be performed, the interpretation of results, the storage of samples, informed consent, and any required counseling. It also outlines the rights of the patient and the legal obligations of the testing provider. The Washington Agreed Order for Genetic Testing can be divided into four different types: Pre-Test Counseling, Test Administration, Post-Test Counseling, and Sample Storage. Pre-Test Counseling includes providing information about the test and its implications, obtaining informed consent, and discussing potential risks and benefits. Test Administration includes collecting the sample and performing the test in accordance with the order. Post-Test Counseling includes discussing the results of the test and providing referrals for additional services as needed. Sample Storage includes the secure storage of all samples for a period of time as specified in the order.
