a

Model includes only screening criteria variables that were significant (p<0.05) after backwards step-wise elimination; initial model included BMI≥25, Age≥45, Relative with diabetes, non-Hispanic black or Hispanic race/ethnicity, Hypertension, HDL≤35mg/dL, A1c≥5.7%, history of CVD

b

Multiple criteria includes: BMI≥25, Age≥45, Relative with diabetes, Hypertension, A1c≥5.7%, CVD; OR indicates the likelihood of having a screening test in the past 3 years for the presence of any additional screening criteria (i.e., participants are 51% more likely to be screened for diabetes in the past 3 years if they have 2 vs. 1 [or 4 vs. 3] of the above screening criteria).

95% CI=Confidence Interval

Study population includes adults age ≥20 years without a previous diagnosis of diabetes
