Context:Communication of genetic laboratory results to patients and providers is impeded by the complexity of results and reports. This can lead to misinterpretation of results, causing inappropriate care. Patients often do not receive a copy of the report leading to possible miscommunication. To address these problems, we conducted patient-centered research to inform design of interpretive reports. Here we describe the development and deployment of a specific patient-centered clinical decision support (CDS) tool, a multi-use patient-centered genomic test report (PGR) that interfaces with an electronic health record (EHR).
