What is the Health Insights genetic test?

The Health Insights test is a ground-breaking genetic health test that helps you understand your risk of developing common conditions before symptoms appear. It combines Polygenic Risk Scores (PRS) — which analyse millions of small genetic variations across your DNA — with traditional clinical factors like your age, sex at birth, and ethnicity. This creates a highly accurate, personalised risk profile, helping you and your GP take preventive action to support your long-term wellbeing.

Which conditions can be tested for?

The Health Insights Test helps identify your genetic risk for four common health conditions. Eligibility criteria vary depending on the condition and will be confirmed by your GP during your appointment. Your doctor will also answer any questions you have before testing.

Cardiovascular Disease (CVD)

  • Aged 40–69
  • No medical history of cardiovascular disease

Type 2 Diabetes

  • Aged 40–69
  • No existing diagnosis of type 2 diabetes

Breast Cancer

  • Aged 40–69
  • Assigned female at birth
  • No prior or current breast cancer diagnosis
  • Not known to carry the BRCA gene

Prostate Cancer

  • Aged 40–69
  • Assigned male at birth
  • No prior or current prostate cancer diagnosis

    Frequently Asked Questions

    Who are Genomics?

    Genomics is a pioneering healthcare company that leverages large-scale genetic data to develop innovative precision healthcare tools and advance drug discovery. Founded in 2014 by four world-leading statistical and human geneticists from the University of Oxford, Genomics collaborates with leading healthcare organisations worldwide. Their work helps predict, prevent, and treat common diseases such as cancer, diabetes, and heart disease, dramatically reducing both human and financial costs.

    What is a Polygenic Risk Score (PRS)?

    A Polygenic Risk Score (PRS) is a scientific measure of an individual’s risk for developing certain diseases, based on the cumulative effects of multiple small DNA variations. A single DNA health test can identify susceptibility to several common conditions at once, giving you a clearer picture of your potential health risks and empowering proactive, personalised healthcare decisions.

    What is genetic/DNA testing?

    Genetic testing involves analysing a sample of your DNA to identify inherited traits, potential health risks, and susceptibility to certain conditions. Our London genetic test service is designed to be simple, accessible, and accurate.

    How much does a Health Insights test cost?

    A Health Insights test can be added to either our Gold or Platinum health screens for an additional £399.

    • Gold Health Screen (Most popular) – £699: Recommended for anyone with health concerns
    • Platinum Health Screen – £950: Recommended for anyone over 40
