For the wizard prototype, the clickable area must include both the radio input and the label.
The same treatment should apply for checkboxes, text inputs, dropdowns/selects, and accordion triggers — labels must be clickable and move focus to the related input.
This is a common issue with the forms library. Some of the other teams are considering how the 'subtitle' might be adjusted in order not to repeat the same as the accordion label. For sighted users this is a cognitive issue, and for screen reader users it is disorienting, may not be clear that the accordion actually opened. In addition, be sure to indicate that focus is to move to the first heading within the accordion so that the user knows the accordion has opened and knows where they are if they can't see the screen or use a mouse. For the example shown below, the inner heading could be "Service member or Veteran's personal information" and another section that may have contact info (as exists in the Caregiver form, for example) would have an inner heading of "Service member or Veteran's contact information" while the accordion heading is "Service member or Veteran information".

For example, the buttons for smaller viewports might look like the following.
This recommendation is also applicable for the Confirmation screen.
@jenstrickland I've reviewed your design feedback and this all looks 💯
I have one question for item #3, and that's all from VSP. You stated

Is this a new interaction pattern we're looking to adopt? Currently the review screen accordions don't move focus when users toggle them open or closed, relying on the aria-expanded
attribute to let screen readers know an interaction occurred.

This was the behavior that we documented in the fall when I reviewed the Higher-Level Review.
Trevor and I discussed offline to resolve the question above.
This feedback is ready for you, @jason-gcio and @sporeboy .
@joshkimux - I am going to create a separate ticket to address this ticket as some or most of these have been addressed since this was written and I don't want to introduce new confusion. This came to us a long time ago but I want to make sure I have left no stone unturned. This is in addition to the orientation feedback you have recently helped us with.
For clarity, I am addressing:
We can consider closing once we have everything checked off.
