CHSDA indicates Contract Health Service Delivery Areas; AI/AN, American Indians/Alaska Natives; NHW, non-Hispanic whites; IHS, Indian Health Service; CI, confidence interval; RR, rate ratio; APC, annual percentage change.

a

Rates are per 100,000 persons and are age-adjusted to the 2000 US standard population (19 age groups, Census P25-1130).

b

Rate ratio is statistically significant (P <.05).

c

APC is statistically significant (P <.05).
