​​Gardner LA, Bomboy J. Preoperative screening and the influence on cancellations and transfers: an ambulatory surgical facility collaboration. Pa Patient Saf Advis [online] 2014 Mar [cited 2016 Jun 15]. http://patientsafetyauthority.org/ADVISORIES/AdvisoryLibrary/2014/Mar;11(1)/Pages/15.aspx

This article contained statements in error on pages 15 and 17. The statements should indicate that ambulatory surgical facility transfer rates decreased 14.7%, from 1.21 transfers per 1,000 admissions preintervention to 1.03 transfers per 1,000 admissions postintervention. Corrections have been made to the online article. The editor regrets the error.
