Results from mixed effects logistic regression models using generalized estimating equations for professional referral versus non-professional referral by racial and ethnic group, adjusted for age, gender, education, visit year, and CDR with a random effect for study site

	All participants			Mild cognitive impairment or dementia
	(n = 35,792)			and a global CDR or 0.5 or 1

Racial-Ethnic Group	Odds Ratio	95% CI	p	Odds Ratio	95% CI	p
Hispanic	0.96	0.81–1.13	0.6065	0.93	0.80–1.09	0.3937
Non-Hispanic Asian	0.65	0.49–0.87	0.0035	0.73	0.57–0.95	0.0174

Non-Hispanic White	1.00	reference	––	1.00	reference	––

Reference group = non-professional referral. CDR = clinical dementia rating scale, professional = referrals made by healthcare professionals, non-professional=self, family and friends. Other race = American Indian or Alaska Native, Native Hawaiian or Other Pacific Islander, and remaining multi-racial participants who did not also identify as non-Hispanic Black or non-Hispanic Asian.
