What the study is about

This clinical trial studies whether a chatbot can be used to help collect medical history and perform cancer risk assessment among patients undergoing cancer genetic counseling. With the improved cost of genetic testing and growing utilization of genetics in cancer care and risk assessment, there is growing pressure placed on certified genetic counselors. To address this issue, many have turned to artificial intelligence (the branch of computer science that deals with writing computer programs that can solve problems creatively) for practical solutions to re-distribute the workload of certified genetic counselors. The chatbot in this trial uses artificial intelligence technology to analyze information provided by the patient during a phone call. The chatbot then generates a family history summary, family tree (pedigree), and cancer risk related assessments, which may help redistribute the workload for the certified genetic counselor and ultimately make genetic counseling more accessible. Using a chatbot may be helpful in collecting medical history and determining cancer risk assessment among patients undergoing cancer genetic counseling.
