Abstract
Background: Returning pharmacogenomics (PGx) results to patients is complex and challenging. Patients prefer provider education; however, a gap in provider comfort in PGx results has been documented. Objectives: This study's purpose was to evaluate satisfaction with the return of PGx test results using a patient portal message. Methods: A survey was sent to two cohorts with PGx results, one that received a PGx result message and one that did not. Results: Following implementation of the PGx result message, there was a decrease in patients reporting negative responses surrounding satisfaction in the return of their PGx results, with 39% responding negatively pre-implementation and 21% post-implementation. Conclusion: Satisfaction with the return of results improved following the implementation of a patient portal message.
