Efforts to standardize and optimize the onboarding process for APPs in HM practices are necessary, to ensure high standards in quality of care.<\/jats:p>\n                  <\/jats:sec>\n                  <jats:sec>\n                    <jats:title>Methods<\/jats:title>\n                    <jats:p>The APP Work Group of the AHS Practice Management Committee developed comprehensive recommendations through literature review, survey of AHS members, and expert consensus.
