Abstract
This study aims to examine transition of care (TOC) practices of multidisciplinary vascular anomalies centers (VACs). Thirty‐seven of 71 VAC leaders to whom the survey was sent completed the questionnaire. TOC and transfer practices varied with only 16% of VACs having TOC programs. The most frequently cited barriers to developing a TOC program were lack of resources and difficulty finding expert adult providers. [ABSTRACT FROM AUTHOR]
