Time in continuity clinic as a predictor of continuity of care for pediatric residents.

Objective: In 1996, the Residency Review Committee-Pediatrics recommended doubling time in continuity clinic to 2 half days per week. It has yet to be demonstrated that increased time in clinic yields greater continuity of care. The objective of this study was to determine whether increasing the number of half days spent in clinic improves continuity of care for residents.
