Figure 1 Volume reductions and cost savings associated with clinical decision support tools, calculated from a monthly report of restricted test order attempts and their associated institutional costs.

Figure 2 Impact of clinical decision support tools (CDST) initiative (July to December 2012). A: Ambulatory test orders (n = 52). B: Inpatient test orders (n = 20). Nondeemed user reorder indicates that the user ordered the test (usually as a miscellaneous order, for which a CDST cannot be used) without using the recommended strategies of either referring the patient to clinical genetics or consulting with another deemed user who could place the order. No further orders represent cases where no additional attempts to order genetic testing and no referrals to clinical genetics were identified during that episode of care.

Figure 3 Orders modified and cost savings associated with genetic and genomic test review, September 2011 to December 2013, on the basis of institutional cost of canceled tests or the difference in cost between the original and the modified test order. The dramatic increase in both orders modified and cost savings from August 2012 coincides with the implementation of a more comprehensive and consistent review process using daily pending logs.

Figure 4 Outcome of 2013 genetic and genomic test review cases (n = 152). A: Type of order alteration. B: Associated cost savings. Cancel represents cases where no genetic testing was ordered. Change includes modifications in gene tested, method, or testing laboratory. Reflex specifically represents a change from multiple concurrent tests or a multigene panel to a strategy of reflexed testing.
