Consumer use and response to online third ‐party raw DNA interpretation services
ConclusionConsumers face challenges in understanding the results and may seek out clinical assistance in interpreting their raw DNA results.
With the availability of raw DNA generated from direct‐to‐consumer (DTC) testing companies, there has been a proliferation of third‐party online services that are available to interpret the raw data for both genealogy and/or health purposes. This study examines the current landscape and downstream clinical implications of consumer use of third‐party services.
