Expedited workflow for autism spectrum disorder in a pediatric genetics clinic.

ABSTRACT: With increasing demand for access to genetic services and the American College of Medical Genetics and Genomics' (ACMG) recommendation that individuals with autism spectrum disorder (ASD) and developmental delay be offered genetic evaluation, alternative service models for genetic care are needed to increase efficiency. Web-based tools have enhanced access to clinical genetics content and services, particularly for patients with common referral indications such as ASD.
