Results were presented as weighted N (%).

Models adjusted for patients’ age, sex, neighborhood median household income, payers, discharge quarter, number of comorbidities, hospital location, hospital teaching status, hospital bed size, and weekend discharge. Marginal probabilities were estimated from the logit regression model and converted from odds ratios. Note: P-values were calculated using Chi-square tests.
