Table 1. Number of Procedures Affected by Assumed Increases in Annual Thyroidectomy Volumes in Generalized Linear Mixed-Effects Modeling.

Actual Annual Surgeon Volume, No. Assumed Increase to Annual Surgeon Volume, No. Procedures Affected, No. (Cumulative %)a

Total cumulative percentage is less than 100% because 4.2% of the procedures were performed by surgeons with annual volumes of 40 or more; their annual volumes were unchanged in the analysis.
