Referring a patient for genetic testing related to familial cancer isn’t an everyday task for most GPs, making it easy to miss essential details required for a Familial Cancer Centre (FCC) referral.

To support GPs, Cancer Council Victoria has developed a new Familial Cancer Centre GP Referral Checklist. This practical resource outlines the key information FCCs need to triage efficiently and arrange initial contact without delay.
