Reference category is <5% of patients covered by Medicaid

Model A: Dependent variable is readiness to offer tobacco assistance (Yes vs. No/Neutral response to Q28) Hosmer and Lemeshow Test P=0.40

Model B: Dependent variable is readiness to offer alcohol or other drug assistance (Yes vs. No/Neutral response to Q28) Hosmer and Lemeshow Test P=0.42
