PMC Statement on Genetic Non-Discrimination

Policy Position

Date: April 28, 2005

We believe that all genetic information, including family history, deserves strong and enforceable protections against misuse in health insurance and employment.

Such safeguards will ensure confidentiality of genetic information of the individual and their family.
