Multivariable Associations With Change in HIV Quality of Care Summary Score (n = 268)*

	β Coefficient (95% CI)
Bup/nx treatment	8.55 (2.06 to 15.0)
Age (1 year)	0.28 (−0.10 to 0.66)
Female gender	1.69 (−4.38 to 7.76)
Race/ethnicity
White	Referent
Black	−0.52 (−6.66 to 5.62)
Latino	0.66 (−7.98 to 9.31)
Other	−0.83 (−16.6 to 14.9)
Opioid of choice Heroin	−2.00 (−8.83 to 4.83)
Stimulant use	−0.37 (−6.82 to 6.08)

^*β Coefficients indicate absolute difference in change in summary score compared with referent category. For example, β coefficient of 8.55 for bup/nx treatment means there was an 8.55% greater improvement in quality of care score in the bup/nx group compared with other treatment.

CI, confidence interval; bup/nx, buprenorphine/naloxone.
