Glycogen Storage Disease Type 1a Gene Test

Utah rates for HCPCS 81250

A genetic test that looks for the common inherited changes in a gene the liver needs in order to release stored sugar into the bloodstream. When it does not work, blood sugar falls dangerously low between meals and the liver becomes enlarged with trapped sugar stores. Only the frequently seen changes are checked rather than the whole gene.
