Patients presenting for a new patient visit with a gynecologic oncologist will be randomized to one of three methods of collection of family health history (Arm 1 - standard of care consisting of interview with the physician; Arm 2 - completion of a web-based family health history tool completed in the clinic waiting room on a computer; Arm 3 - completion of a web-based family health history tool completed prior to the visit and accessed by an email link). A new 4th arm was added with 200 chart reviews to retrospectively look back at how previous family health history was taken for new patients in 2019. The study will evaluate the quality of the family health history collected, the resulting referral to genetic services and patient and physician satisfaction.
