Characterisation, via whole exome or genome sequencing and analysis, of germline variants known to cause monogenic disorders, if:

(a) the characterisation is:

(i) requested by a consultant physician practising as a clinical geneticist; or

(ii) requested by a consultant physician practising as a specialist paediatrician, following consultation with a clinical geneticist; and

(b) the patient is aged 10 years or younger and is strongly suspected of having a monogenic condition, based on the presence of:

(i) dysmorphic facial appearance and one or more major structural congenital anomalies; or

(ii) intellectual disability or global developmental delay of at least moderate severity, as determined by a specialist paediatrician; and

(c) the characterisation is performed following the performance for the patient of a service to which item 73292 applies for which the results were non-informative; and

(d) the characterisation is not performed in conjunction with a service to which item 73359 applies

Applicable only once per lifetime

(a) the characterisation is:

(i) requested by a consultant physician practising as a clinical geneticist; or

(ii) requested by a consultant physician practising as a specialist paediatrician, following consultation with a clinical geneticist; and

(b) the request for the characterisation states that singleton testing is inappropriate; and

(i) dysmorphic facial appearance and one or more major structural congenital anomalies; or

(ii) intellectual disability or global developmental delay of at least moderate severity, as determined by a specialist paediatrician; and

(d) the characterisation is performed following the performance for the patient of a service to which item 73292 applies for which the results were non-informative; and

(e) the characterisation is performed using a sample from the patient and a sample from each of the patient’s biological parents; and

(f) the characterisation is not performed in conjunction with a service to which item 73358 applies

Applicable only once per lifetime

Testing of a person (the person tested) for the detection of a single gene variant for diagnostic purposes, if:

  1. the person tested has a biological sibling (the sibling) with a known monogenic condition; and
  2. a service described in item 73358, 73359 or 73360 has identified the causative variant for the sibling’s condition; and

  4. the detection is:
    1. requested by a consultant physician practising as a clinical geneticist; or
    2. requested by a consultant physician practising as a specialist paediatrician, following consultation with a clinical geneticist; and
  5. the detection is not performed in conjunction with a service to which item 73362 or 73363 applies
