Chi square tests were used to identify demographics and healthcare related factors that were a statistically significant impact in whether or not a follow-up visit was completed. Balance users currently seeing a provider for a mental health issue were more likely to complete a follow-up visit. Those between age 19–34 were more likely to engage the Care Concierge as well. Fourteen Balance users were excluded due to missing age or gender information.
