Genetic Testing Voucher Program

Our Genetic Testing Program was created to assist patients who have health insurance, but cannot afford the co-pay or out of pocket costs for testing hereditary cancer. This program may help you pay for your test(s).

You could be eligible if:

  • You are a Massachusetts Resident.
  • You have health insurance (including Medicaid & Medicare and other state or federal programs).
  • You have a household income below 400% of the federal poverty level. (http://aspe.hhs.gov/poverty)
  • You have a referral or doctor order for a genetic test. Your healthcare provider or genetic counselor will know if you meet the medical criteria for the test(s).
  • IMPORTANT: You must submit your application for funding prior to sending your blood sample to the lab.

How much will I have to pay for my test?

The Cancer Resource Foundation, Inc. (CRF) is a nonprofit 501(c)3 public charity that receives funding from many sources. Our goal is to help as many people as possible. We review each application on a first-come first-served basis. The cost for each test varies. The “out of pocket” costs vary as well. We can provide a genetic testing voucher to qualified individuals. The voucher is valid for tests and labs identified in our system. Once you receive a voucher, you will not be billed for any portion of the test(s) you have been approved for. The lab will work with your insurance company to insure that your share of costs are covered 100%.
