a

When copy-number variation was present, it sometimes resulted as a range phenotype because the copy-number variation could not be detected for specific alleles.

b

Phenotype accounts for phenoconversion.

c

Zero consults requested.

d

Participants only counted once, participants with at least one gene with a phenotype warranting a recommendation.

e

11 of 11, as one individual had a phenotype that was considered actionable, but did not start an SSRI. Three individuals continued their SSRI that was metabolized by an actionable CYP enzyme, but had dose increases and thus counted as aligning with phenotype.

f

Appointments were scheduled at week two of the study to allow for genotype results to be acted upon.
