Personalized Medicine Coalition

The Personalized Medicine Coalition (PMC), representing innovators, scientists, patients, providers and payers, promotes the understanding and adoption of personalized medicine concepts, services and products to benefit patients and the health system.

The Coalition:

• Provides opinion leadership on policy issues that affect personalized medicine
• Helps educate policymakers in government, industry and academia about the benefits of personalized medicine
• Serves as a forum for identifying and informing others of policies that could advance or impede the development of personalized medicine

Personalized medicine is an evolving field in which physicians use diagnostic tests to determine which medical treatments will work best for each patient. By combining the data from those tests with an individual’s medical history, circumstances and values, health care providers can develop targeted treatment and prevention plans.
