Our data suggest that AYA patients with active behavioral health concerns understand and express general satisfaction with their medical documentation. Overall, reading medical documentation seemed to help a greater proportion of research participants as opposed to hindering or having no effect on inpatient counseling and therapy compliance. These are the first data to demonstrate medical note comprehension and satisfaction among AYA patients in vulnerable clinical settings.
