Variables significant at p <= .05, unless otherwise indicated. Non-significant variables also included in the model: sex, tumor grade.

N=35, 055, 936 deaths

3

Conditional on having survived through 30 days; N=33,250, 1,519 Deaths, excludes 936 cases who died within 30 days,

4

Not significant 30 day mortality (p> .05).

5

Not significant 90 day conditional mortality (p>.05).

Based on 2000 Census data income of patient zip code. 2,037 cases with missing income classifed included in top quartile groups.
