Note: Multivariable IPTW Cox proportional hazards regression models included the following covariates: demographic variables (age, sex, presence of spouse or partner, presence of children, and race); socioeconomic status (total monthly income, education, employment, number of times the Veteran was homeless in the previous 3 years); indicators for the type of income (earned, supplemental security income (SSI), VA disability, and other); indicators for publicly funded benefit programs (Supplemental Nutrition Assistance Program (SNAP) and other benefits); health insurance variables (Medicaid, Medicare, VA healthcare, and other health insurance); indicators for enrollment in other VA homelessness programs (US Department of Housing and Urban Development-VA Supportive Housing (HUD-VASH) vouchers, Grant and Per Diem (GPD), and other programs); Charlson Comorbidity Index; mental health diagnoses; VA healthcare cost in the 365 days prior to the index date; rurality; fiscal year of the SSVF episode; zip code Area Deprivation Index; and indicator for grantee. A p-value of 0.05 was used as the threshold for statistical significance
