Since this is an out of pocket test not covered by medicaid/medicare, I don't know if the value based care argument is that relevant. I know what you're saying though. The value we provide: If people want to know, they can now know. I also think not making the test accessible also has downsides. |

What I mean is what would justify someone spending $400. The example of pregnancy is not a good one, as someone is better off just monitoring blood pressure (which is already common advice for all expectant mothers) for $100 instead of paying for this test.
I think value based healthcare is more important when people pay themselves.
Since there’s no intervention based on the results, it’s not a good idea for people until the results are actionable.
