Abstract

Prevalence of receipt of health care transition preparation services is low among all youth. Findings from this study draw attention to subgroups of youth least likely to receive guidance about health care transition preparation. Health care professionals should be supported to develop clinical and system-level interventions to improve health care transition preparation.
