Genetic Testing & Pharmacogenomics
Pharmacogenomic Testing Coordinated for Your Practice
Bring pharmacogenomic insight into prescribing without adding operational burden. TMS designs the candidate criteria, collection workflow and reporting pathway, then coordinates qualified laboratory partners so results reach clinicians in a usable form.
TMS manages and coordinates pharmacogenomic programs. We are not a laboratory.
Individualized Insight
Prescribing can account for how a patient metabolizes specific medications.
Workflow Integration
Testing fits into visits and ordering patterns the practice already uses.
Usable Reporting
Results are delivered in a format clinicians can act on during care.
Laboratory Coordination
TMS coordinates qualified laboratory partners performing the analysis.
The clinical context
Pharmacogenomics Is a Decision-Support Tool, Not a Standalone Answer
Pharmacogenomic testing examines how a patient's genes may affect response to certain medications. When integrated into the clinical workflow, it can provide additional information prescribers consider alongside diagnosis, history, symptoms and other clinical factors.
The challenge for most practices is not the science — it is the operational work around it. Who is tested? When is testing appropriate? How is the sample collected, routed and reported? Who interprets the result in the context of the visit?
TMS builds the pathway so pharmacogenomics becomes a repeatable part of clinical decision support rather than an occasional, ad hoc order.
The laboratory produces the genetic analysis. TMS helps your practice manage the process around it.
The challenge
Why Pharmacogenomic Programs Stall
Practices recognize the value of pharmacogenomic information but struggle to make it operational. Without a defined pathway, testing is ordered inconsistently and results sit unused.
Unclear Candidate Criteria
Providers are unsure which patients are appropriate for testing and when.
Complex Reports
Genetic reports arrive in formats that take time to interpret during a busy visit.
Disconnected Workflow
Ordering, collection and reporting are not integrated with existing monitoring processes.
No Follow-Up Pathway
Results are not consistently linked to medication decisions or patient education.
Staff Uncertainty
Front desk and clinical staff do not know how to schedule, collect or document the test.
Laboratory Logistics
Practices manage requisitions, shipping and follow-up with laboratory partners on their own.
How it works
One Partner for the Pharmacogenomic Workflow
TMS coordinates every operational step so providers can focus on applying the information clinically.
- 1
Clinical Alignment
We define which medication classes and patient situations justify testing in your practice.
- 2
Workflow Integration
Ordering and collection are built into visits you already schedule.
- 3
Laboratory Coordination
TMS manages the qualified laboratory partner performing the analysis.
- 4
Provider Education
Staff and clinicians are trained on how to read and apply the report.
- 5
Reporting Setup
Results are routed to the prescriber with supporting context.
- 6
Ongoing Review
The program is refined as medications, guidance and your patient mix change.
One coordinating partner
TMS Coordinates the Moving Parts
Instead of requiring the practice to independently manage every relationship and workflow, TMS acts as the coordinating partner across the pharmacogenomic program.
We are not a laboratory. We are your medication monitoring partner.

Clinical value
Supporting More Informed Prescribing
Pharmacogenomic information can help prescribers understand how a patient may metabolize or respond to certain medications. Depending on the clinical context, this may support decisions related to:
- Medication selection and dosing considerations
- Identification of potential gene-medication interactions
- Reduction of trial-and-error prescribing
- More targeted therapeutic planning
- Documentation of the information considered in prescribing
Pharmacogenomic results are one component of clinical decision-making and should be interpreted by qualified healthcare professionals in the context of the patient's complete clinical picture.

Two ways to run a program
Managing It Independently vs. Managing It With TMS
Managing it independently
- Multiple vendors
- Disconnected workflows
- Staff coordination
- Laboratory communication
- Technology administration
- Documentation processes
- Ongoing troubleshooting
Managing it with TMS
- One coordinating partner
- Structured workflows
- Laboratory coordination
- Technology support
- Staff implementation support
- Ongoing program management
Our role
We Are Not a Laboratory. We Are Your Medication Monitoring Management Partner.
TMS does not replace the physician or the laboratory. We help connect the pieces.
TMS works alongside healthcare organizations and qualified laboratory partners to help manage the operational, technology, educational and coordination requirements surrounding pharmacogenomic testing.
01
Provider
Clinical decisions
The treating healthcare professional decides when monitoring is appropriate and how results inform care.
02
TMS
Management & coordination
Program design, workflow, technology, education, documentation support and laboratory coordination.
03
Laboratory Partner
Performs the testing
Qualified laboratory partners perform and report the testing. TMS coordinates the relationship.
FAQ
Frequently Asked Questions
Does TMS run the genetic analysis?
No. Analysis is performed by qualified laboratory partners. TMS designs the program, coordinates the partner relationship and manages reporting into your workflow.
Which patients are appropriate for pharmacogenomic testing?
Criteria are defined with your providers, typically focused on patients whose response to therapy has been difficult to predict or manage.
Is pharmacogenomic testing a standalone diagnostic?
No. It is a decision-support tool that provides additional information for prescribers to consider alongside the full clinical picture.
How are results delivered?
Results are routed to the prescriber through the TMS-coordinated workflow in a format designed to support clinical decision-making.
Can TMS integrate with our existing laboratory?
TMS can evaluate the practice's current workflow and laboratory relationships and discuss available coordination options.
How do we get started?
Begin with a consultation so TMS can understand your prescribing workflow, patient population and program goals.
