Making strides in patient-centered healthcare! Geisinger's MyCode Community Health Initiative has marked a new milestone with 350,000 participants. By evaluating genomic risk, we're able to better prevent, detect and treat conditions like hereditary breast and colon cancers, heart disease and more. It's collaborative healthcare at its most potent. Here's to healthier futures! One of those participants, Jeff Mylet, took a simple blood test through Geisinger’s MyCode program that helped identify his family history and take preventive measures to avoid thyroid cancer.

Our Junior Volunteers are crafting better futures for themselves and the community, and we couldn't be prouder!
