Alaska rates for HCPCS 81200

A blood or saliva test that looks for one or more specific known inherited changes in a single gene, examining those defined changes rather than reading the whole gene from end to end. It is used in carrier screening, where a healthy person is checked for a change that would matter if their partner carried one in the same gene. The result covers only the one gene examined.
