For each encounter the following were recorded: patient age, gender, incarcerated status at the time of encounter (a subset of patients had encounters before\/after incarceration), interventions performed, follow-up interval requested, urgency of follow-up, and actual time to subsequent follow-up. Primary outcome measures were no-show rate and timeliness, which was defined as follow-up within 1.5\u00d7 the requested period.<\/jats:p><jats:p>\n          Results\u2003There were 489 patients included during the study period, representing a total of 2,014 clinical encounters. Of the 489 patients, 189 (38.7%) were seen once. Of the remaining 300 patients with more than one encounter, 184 (61.3%) ultimately did not return and only 24 (8%) were always on time for every encounter. Of 1,747 encounters with specific follow-up requested, 1,072 were considered timely (61.3%). Factors significantly associated with subsequent loss to follow-up include whether a procedure was performed (p\u2009&lt;\u20090.0001), urgency of follow-up (p\u2009&lt;\u20090.0001), incarcerated status (p\u2009=\u20090.0408), and whether follow-up was requested (p\u2009&lt;\u20090.0001).<\/jats:p><jats:p>\n          Conclusion\u2003Almost two-thirds of incarcerated patients in our population requiring repeat examination were lost to follow-up, particularly those who underwent an intervention or required more urgent follow-up. Patients entering and exiting the penal system were less likely to follow-up while incarcerated. Further work is needed to understand how these gaps compare to those in the general population and to identify means of improving these outcomes.<\/jats:p>","DOI":"10.1055\/s-0042-1758562","type":"journal-article","created":{"date-parts":[[2022,11,19]],"date-time":"2022-11-19T18:32:00Z","timestamp":1668882720000},"page":"e258-e262","source":"Crossref","is-referenced-by-count":9,"title":["Accuracy
