The Colorado-Wyoming Regional Genetic Counseling Program has demonstrated the feasibility and utility of providing genetic counseling services over a very large area of the Rocky Mountain Region. A basis for preventing genetic and congenital disorders has been established and the patient care provided has been as comprehensive, sophisticated and effective as for any genetic counseling clinic operating in a medical center, with the added advantage of being accessible to a much larger and less financially able patient population. Utilization data and consumer assessment of the values of this service confirm these impressions.
科罗拉多-怀俄明地区遗传咨询项目已证明在落基山地区的大片区域提供遗传咨询服务的可行性和实用性。预防遗传和先天性疾病的基础已经奠定,所提供的患者护理与任何在医疗中心运营的遗传咨询诊所一样全面、精细且有效,而且还有一个额外优势,即能让更多经济能力较差的患者群体获得服务。该服务的使用数据和消费者评估证实了这些印象。
