Abstrakt:	Human Immunodeficiency Virus (HIV)-positive individuals lost to follow-up from particular clinics may not be lost to care (LTC). After linking Vanderbilt's Comprehensive Care Clinic cohort to Tennessee's statewide HIV surveillance database, LTC decreased from 48.4% to 35.0% at 10 years. Routine surveillance linkage by domestic HIV clinics would improve LTC and retention measure accuracy. Competing Interests: Potential conflicts of interest. P. F. R. received honoraria from Gilead & Janssen Pharmaceuticals in 2021. All other authors report no potential conflicts.
