Proposed Collection Title: The Genetic Testing Registry, 0925-0651,
Expiration Date 1/31/2025-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 26,000 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. The GTR also has tests for microbes like for SARS-CoV-2 to
diagnose COVID-19.
OMB approval is requested for 3 years. There are no costs to
respondents other than their time. The total estimated annualized
burden hours are 2837.
