Abstract

The likelihood of 30-day complications among all MTF quartiles in 2020-2023 was significantly higher compared to MTFs in 2016-2019. However, EGS patients treated in low-volume MTFs experienced similar, if not improved, clinical outcomes of mortality and readmissions compared to those treated in high-volume MTFs.
