Implementation strategies to scale rGS for clinical care may change clinician roles. We analyzed the NICU rGS workflow to understand challenges rGS poses for clinical roles and responsibilities.<\/jats:p>\n                <\/jats:sec>\n                <jats:sec>\n                  <jats:title>Methods<\/jats:title>\n                  <jats:p>The study took a qualitative approach to understanding the rGS workflow in Level III and Level IV NICUs. The five workflow phases studied included: i) identification of a patient with a suspected genetic disorder, ii) subspecialist consultation, iii) test selection and ordering, iv) return of results, and v) disclosure. Data were collected via job task journals, interviews, and workflow diagram construction with clinicians involved in rGS. Analysis included participant-guided workflow diagram refinement, qualitative thematic analysis, and identification of rGS workflow challenges.<\/jats:p>\n                <\/jats:sec>\n                <jats:sec>\n                  <jats:title>Results<\/jats:title>\n                  <jats:p>We documented issues related to decision-making authority and scope of responsibility for clinicians, with the majority relating to complexities of subspecialist consultations. Issues included differences in: criteria for triggering consultations, expectations of consulted subspecialists\u2019 roles, test selection preferences, and responsibility for documenting clinical interpretations and disclosure.<\/jats:p>\n                <\/jats:sec>\n                <jats:sec>\n                  <jats:title>Conclusion<\/jats:title>\n                  <jats:p>Subspecialist
