a

Model derived using Stata XTMELOGIT.

b

Model derived using Stata XTMIXED.

c

All models included additional fixed effects for race/ethnicity, mother’s age, education, marital status, special need status, federally qualified health centers or rural health center market share, private provider capacity, managed care market share, changes in Medicaid enrollment, and reimbursement for EPSDT.

d

Low is defined as ≤ 19% of visits, average as 20%–59% of visits, and high as ≥ 60% of visits.

e

All models included random effects for county and year.
