Description Implementing a transition of care policy and educating pediatric primary care providers about healthcare transition (HCT) guidelines and resources improves provider documentation and discussion of HCT with adolescent patients. Provider education on HCT guidelines and clinic policy. Charting templates and resources created for use in patient education. Pre- and post- intervention surveys assessed providers' "understanding of HCT principles and attitudes regarding the policy." Chart review compared pre- and post- intervention documentation of HCT discussion. Providing HCT education, policy, resources for providers led to an increase in reported discussion and confidence in HCT. Addressing identified barriers will promote improved HCT documentation and sustainability of provider participation. Future projects implementing additional CDC transition guidelines will further increase provider discussion of HCT.
