After enrolling in New York City Care, what percentage of members receive a primary care visit within six months?

Mercedes Narcisse

Now, I think some of them you said you're doing excellent on that.

Dr. Jonathan Jimenez

Yes, to say it again.

Dr. Jonathan Jimenez

Too excellent.

Dr. Jonathan Jimenez

Because we've worked very hard on this.

Dr. Jonathan Jimenez

No, you don't have to repeat it.

Mercedes Narcisse

Because if you want.

Mercedes Narcisse

Okay, what do you want to add to it?
