Freestyle DNA Test anyone?

I was just informed that at my appt this afternoon I could expect to have a Freestyle DNA test done as an alternative for an amnio or CVS test. I can't seem to find much about it at all anywhere? Anybody have this done? Is it as accurate as an amnio? 

Maybe it's called something else and this is just a term my doctor uses?

    I'm not sure- I'm pretty sure she called it a freestyle- but I could be way off myself. Dang phone conversations.

    You might want to look up NIPT. My understanding is it's just as accurate as amnio or cvs, just not invasive.
