Note. Table reports the mean (minimum value [min.], maximum value [max.]) for each health system-level characteristic. One additional health system from the larger Take CARE (Clinical Avenues to Reach Health Equity) research effort did not take part in this study primarily due to challenges from the coronavirus disease 2019 (COVID-19) pandemic. Data for this health system are not included in the table.
