New medical treatments and diagnostics that are based on your own unique genetic blueprint could help prevent disease and improve the overall quality of your health and longevity. Referred to as “personalized medicine”, this emerging field has the potential to revolutionize the health care industry.
According to speakers at the first annual Personalized Medicine World Conference, agreements about policies, practices and payment among the key stakeholders—academia, government, industry and payers—will be necessary before the acceptance and offering of personalized medicine becomes mainstream. The value, cost and benefits must be proven; particularly for insurance companies that ultimately determine reimbursements.
In the meantime, some companies are offering consumer options now. MEDgle provides consumers with free on-line diagnostic and prognostic tools. After logging on to MEDgle’s site and answering seven questions, you get a list of potential diagnoses. With that in hand, you can prepare relevant questions for your doctor.
MEDgle also offers a preventative tool called “Healthier Mee” which gives you a fit score, a list of susceptible diseases, and positive changes you can make to improve your health and longevity.
If you’re an information-seeker, Singularity Hub—a blog with a mission to take humanity to the next level through medical and technology enhancements—offers medical and technology enthusiasts a place to find the latest advancements in both fields.
