Working-age groups comprised publicly and privately insured and uninsured adults between 18 and 65. Senior groups included mostly adults ≥ 65 years old, although a few participants in these groups were under 65. Senior group participants’ choices are analyzed and presented separately since the options available in CHAT and their relative costs differed from those available for the other groups. Missing data for Working-age groups represented about 10%; for Senior groups < 1%
