Rates of hospital admissions, ED attendances and primary care contacts for MidMed patients, compared to non-MidMed

Reference group: non-MidMed.

CI: Confidence Interval. OR: Odds Ratio. RR: Rate Ratio. HR: Hazard Ratio. Green: reduced odds with MidMed. Red: increased odds with MidMed.

^*Crude rate: estimated number of events per person per patient-year.

†Hurdle model for ED attendances and hospital admission. In this two-part method, modelling of the number of attendances first has to cross a hurdle (any attendance/admission) then a separate process assesses the count of attendances.

^{* *} P value <0.05, ^***P < 0.001.
