Proposed Collection Title: The Genetic Testing Registry, 0925-0651, Expiration Date 07/31/2018—EXTENSION, Office of the Director (OD), National Institutes of Health (NIH).
Need and Use of Information Collection: Clinical laboratory tests are available for more than 10,000 genetic conditions. The Genetic Testing Registry (GTR) provides a centralized, online location for test developers, manufacturers, and researchers to voluntarily submit detailed information about the availability and scientific basis of their genetic tests. The GTR is of value to clinicians by providing information about the accuracy, validity, and usefulness of genetic tests. The GTR also highlights evidence gaps where additional research is needed.
OMB approval is requested for 3 years. There are no costs to respondents other than their time. The total estimated annualized burden hours are 4,198.
