  • An order for the full FSHD1 and FSHD2 panel is not required; providers must be specific on the UIDL FSHD Test Requisition whether the full panel or individual components are requested.
    • Note, there will always be one professional charge irrespective of what test is ordered.
  • An order for a full panel may not require performance of all the components, and the UIDL will only bill for the work performed.
    • Please know that the amount of testing that will ultimately be performed on a specimen when an order for the full panel is requested cannot be determined prior to the start of the testing.
    • In general, the minimum amount of testing performed is optical mapping to determine allele sizes and haplotyping.

The minimum amount of testing that will generally be done, is the Determination of Allele Sizes and Haplotyping by Optical Mapping.
