Outpatient follow-up and future care-seeking for pediatric ambulatory care-sensitive conditions.

Objectives: Outpatient follow-up visits are often recommended for children with ambulatory care-sensitive conditions (ACSCs) who are discharged from emergency departments or urgent care centers (acute care settings). We sought to assess whether attending a follow-up visit within 7 days is associated with seeking initial office-based care rather than acute care during a subsequent ACSC illness. Understanding this association is crucial to guide recommendations for routine short-term follow-up visits in children who seek acute care for these common conditions.
