Correction: Continuity in a VA Patient-Centered Medical Home Reduces Emergency Department Visits

There are errors in Table 4. The title of the table should read “Adjusted Odds of ED utilization” and the column labelled “Visits/1000 PY” should read “AOR”. The corrected table is shown below.

Table 4. Association Between Levels of Continuity of Care and Emergency Department Utilization for Patients with ≥1 Continuity Visit^a.

Adjusted Rates of ED Utilization
Variables	Adjusted Rates (95% CI)	p-value
Low (<33%)b	662 (407, 1076)	-
Medium (33-50%)	585 (298, 1148)	0.20
High (>50%)	533 (276, 1031)	0.01

Abbreviations: ED, emergency department; PY, person-year; CI, confidence interval; IQR, interquartile range; OR, odds ratio; AOR, adjusted odds ratio; COPD, chronic obstructive pulmonary disease; TIA, transient ischemic attack; PTSD, post-traumatic stress disorder; ED, emergency department; PCP, primary care provider.

^aThe adjusted model excluded 1289 (9.6%) patients because they were missing one or more variables in the model.

^bReference value.

^cBecause of the small number of veterans in these groups, they were combined: active military personnel, CAV/NPS, ChampVA spouse and children, non-Veteran humanitarian groups, merchant marines, and Tricare.
