In Spring 2019, the Imagenetics program at Sanford Health and the U.S. Department of Veterans Affairs teamed up to offer pharmacogenomic (PGx) testing through a program called PHASER (“Pharmacogenomic Testing for Veterans”) to current VA patients at no cost. While the program is housed under the National Oncology Program, a cancer diagnosis is not required to participate.

This test can provide information for many commonly prescribed medications. This test does not cover all drugs. You may be taking other drugs for which the genes involved are not yet well understood or included. Your doctor will discuss the list of medicines covered by this test with you.
