Automated VUS Reclassification Alerts

Every morning, WebRun opens Progeny Clinical, compares each patient's recorded variant classification against yesterday's, logs any change to a Google Sheet with the old and new classification, and posts a Slack alert to the clinical team ranked by whether the variant moved toward pathogenic or benign.

In short

How do I make sure my clinic catches every variant reclassification quickly?

WebRun compares every patient's variant classification in Progeny Clinical each morning against the previous day's value, logs any reclassification to a Google Sheet with the old and new tier, and posts a Slack alert to the clinical team ranked by urgency. Upgrades toward pathogenic surface first, so no reclassification waits for someone to notice it by chance.

  • No variant reclassification goes unnoticed between visits
  • Upgrades toward pathogenic reach the clinical team the same morning
  • Every change is logged with its old and new classification for the record

Good to know

Questions, answered

Does it contact the patient about the reclassification?

No. WebRun only logs the change and alerts your clinical team internally in Slack. A genetic counselor decides how and when to reach the patient or the ordering provider.

How does it know a classification actually changed?

It compares each patient's current variant classification in Progeny Clinical against the value from the previous run, so only genuine changes get logged and alerted.

Which reclassifications get flagged as most urgent?

Any variant that moved toward pathogenic is listed first in the Slack alert, since those usually need the fastest clinical follow up.
