Best case scenario^c (N = 666)	464	69.7	(66.0, 73.1)
Proportion of patients who were assessed for treatment eligibility ≤ 90 days after receiving a viral load results among those with a detectable viral load
Complete case analysis^a (N = 420)	189	45.0	(40.2, 49.9)
Worst case scenario^b (N = 448)	189	42.2	(37.7, 46.9)
Best case scenario^c (N = 448)	217	48.4	(43.7, 53.2)
Proportion of SVR12 results returned ≤ 210 days of treatment initiation among patients who initiated treatment
Complete case analysis^a (N = 368)	46	12.5	(9.3, 16.3)
Worst case scenario^b (N = 394)	46	11.7	(8.7, 15.23
Best case scenario^c (N = 394)	72	18.3	(14.6, 22.5)

^aComplete case analyses excluded individuals who completed the stage of interest, but were missing data on the relevant start or end dates necessary to assess timing of the event
^bThe worst-case scenario assumed that all individuals who were missing relevant dates had experienced the event of interest after the cut off
^cThe best-case scenario assumed that all individuals missing relevant dates experienced the event of interest before the cut-off
