1We developed an a priori list of process measures for patient retention after their primary care physician graduated. We defined “successfully transitioned” as having established care with any provider in the practice even if it was not with the assigned resident provider within 18 months of resident graduation. “Not transitioned” was defined as not having re-established primary care in the practice or only interfacing with urgent/specialty care providers within the 18-month timeframe
2Acute problem-based visit with a provider in the practice, not with the intent of preventive or continuity care
