What happened to my patient? An educational intervention to facilitate postdischarge patient follow-up.

Narayana S, Rajkomar A, Harrison JD, Valencia V, Dhaliwal G, Ranji SR. J Grad Med Educ. 2017;9:627-633.

Insufficient follow-up with patients after hospitalization hinders identification of diagnostic or treatment errors. This commentary discusses the results of an intervention that incorporated a structured process for residents to gather information and reflect on patient status for postdischarge follow-up.
