Association between components of objective health and physician-rated health

	Physician rating
Variable a	Good	Fair	Poor
	RRR b (95%CI)	RRR b (95%CI)	RRR b (95%CI)
Functional dependency	1.00 (reference)	2.05 (1.35-3.11)	5.94 (2.77-12.77)
Medical conditions	1.00 (reference)	3.05 (2.20-4.21)	3.11 (1.87-5.17)
Cognitive status	1.00 (reference)	1.37 (0.89-2.13)	1.47 (0.76-2.83)

^a Entered in models as 1, 2 or 3, for the low, intermediate and high severity level, respectively

^b Relative risk ratios of receiving fair and poor, as compared to good, physician rating for each increase of 1 in the level of severity of the independent variables, adjusted for baseline age, sex, facility type and the 3 components of the table, from a multinomial logistic regression model
