Five genes listed on commercial laboratory NBS panels were defined as being associated with an adult-onset condition and categorized into ASQM Category 3 or ASQM Category 4 based on actionability scoring. NF2 was listed on Fulgent’s panel and SERPINA1, HGD, NAGA, PRNP were all found on PerkinElmer’s panel. Phenotypic association, inheritance, outcome considered for scoring, age of onset, intervention considered for scoring, individual scores for the five ASQM criteria (severity of disease, likelihood of presentation, efficacy and acceptability of intervention, and knowledge base), ASQM total score, and category indicate what was reviewed and decided upon by the scoring committee
