- Abstract
The article discusses the current health policy initiatives and misunderstandings surrounding the non-invasive prenatal test (NIPT). The German Bundestag has discussed the need for reliable data on the implementation and consequences of the NIPT. The article provides a historical overview of prenatal diagnostics and explains the significance of the NIPT. It also addresses the concerns and misconceptions surrounding the test, including the misinterpretation of false-positive results. The article concludes by supporting the proposal to gather data on the NIPT and hopes to contribute to a more informed and objective discussion on the topic.
