Your GenMeds Risk Assessment uses the information you provide to help build a detailed picture of your long-term cardiovascular and diabetes risk.
We’ve worked with medical experts to develop a formula designed to help you understand where your health risks may be today, and how those risks could change over time with the right medical treatment.
What your Risk Assessment looks at
Your cardiovascular and diabetes risk is based on several factors, including:
Age
BMI
Blood pressure
Cholesterol levels
Medical conditions
Other health and lifestyle factors
Together, these help create a clearer picture of your current health and long-term risk.
Optional additional information
To enhance your results, you can add optional blood markers, such as:
HbA1c
Lp(a)
Kidney markers, such as eGFR
These additional markers can give a more complete view of your health.
But don’t worry if you don’t have these blood markers. They are totally optional for the Risk Assessment, and you will still get a detailed Risk Assessment report without them.
What your results mean
Your results are projections. They’re designed to help show where your current risks may be, and how those risks could improve with different treatment options.
GenMeds may show different treatment scenarios based on available options, such as:
PCSK9 inhibitors
Statins
GLP-1s
These scenarios help you understand how different treatments may support realistic health goals.
Why this assessment matters
The goal of the Risk Assessment is to help you better understand your current risk for cardiovascular and diabetes-related health issues, and how those risks may improve.
What to do next
If medication is something you would like to explore, you can start an intake form to see whether treatment may be right for you. The intake form can be found on your GenMeds account dashboard.
A clinician will review your information and help determine whether medication is appropriate.
