Abstract:
This application is to reinstate, without change, an Office of Management and Budget (OMB) approved collection of information, 0925-0651. The purpose of the reinstatement is to continue the National Institutes of Health (NIH) Genetic Testing Registry (GTR), a public database that health care providers, researchers, and others can search for information submitted voluntarily by genetic test providers. The GTR aims to enhance access to information about the availability and scientific basis of molecular, cytogenetic and biochemical clinical and research genetic tests. In 2020, to support efforts to mitigate the impact of the COVID-19 pandemic, GTR expanded its scope to include molecular and serologic tests for SARS-CoV-2 that causes COVID-19.
