FamGenix and Spesana, two leading health-tech companies, are thrilled to announce a strategic partnership that promises to propel the advancement of precision medicine and transform the solutions available to clinicians & patients. Combining FamGenix’s hereditary risk screening solutions with Spesana's clinical workflow ecosystem, both organizations aim to revolutionize patient care and outcomes in the healthcare industry.
With this collaboration, clinicians will have unprecedented access to actionable data at the point of care, empowering them to make informed decisions and create more efficient and personalized patient treatment plans. FamGenix’s state-of-the-art pedigree & hereditary risk assessment solutions are planned to be seamlessly integrated with Spesana's solution, providing a comprehensive suite of cutting-edge tools and insights.
“We are excited about the possibilities that this collaboration brings to serve clinicians as they diagnose and treat the patient medicine, which by definition, requires deep understanding of the whole patient,” said Carla Balch, CEO/Founder at Spesana. “By combining Spesana’s technology with FamGenix’s genomics insights, we aim to leverage our advanced technology tools to create a clinician-friendly shift to include genetics and family history as a standard piece of healthcare, ultimately leading to better outcomes for patients and potentially their family.”
The collaboration between FamGenix and Spesana is driven by shared objectives and their strong alignment in mission, vision, and values. Both companies are deeply committed to advancing healthcare technology and improving patient outcomes.
“We’re firmly committed to making family health histories a part of every patient’s electronic health record. The promise of precision medicine can only reach its full potential if a complete and accurate picture of the patient is presented to clinicians at the point of care and family health histories are an integral part. The collaboration between FamGenix and Spesana is a major step forward in achieving this goal,” said Michael Brammer, CEO/Founder at FamGenix.
This strategic partnership marks a significant milestone for both companies and holds the promise of reshaping the future of healthcare through the integration of advanced technology and clinical expertise. Together, FamGenix and Spesana are poised to make a meaningful impact on patient care, enabling better outcomes and healthier communities.
