GRAIL, Inc. (GRAL) has announced a partnership with athenahealth to integrate the ordering of its Galleri multi-cancer early detection or MCED test into athena Coordinator Core, a care coordination service that is part of athenahealth's cloud-based electronic health record or EHR platform, athenaOne.
The integration will allow more than 160,000 clinicians on the athenahealth network to order the Galleri test directly within their existing EHR workflows, simplifying the process for both healthcare providers and patients.
Test results will be returned directly to the patient's chart, minimizing administrative burden and manual data entry.
The Galleri test uses a single blood draw to detect shared cancer signals across more than 50 types of cancer, including many that lack standard screening methods.
It identifies DNA fragments shed by tumors into the bloodstream, acting as a "fingerprint" to detect the presence of cancer and predict its tissue of origin.
The test is intended for use in adults with an elevated risk of cancer, especially those aged 50 and older.
