| Charlson Comorbidity Index | 0.92 (0.90-0.95) | <.0001 | −0.08 |
| Schizophrenia Diagnosis | 0.65 (0.52-0.81) | 0.0002 | −0.05 |
| Model 2: Odds of receipt of Both Buprenorphine and Methadone in same year Vs Methadone only | |||

| Charlson comorbidity Index | 0.96 (0.93-0.99) | 0.0064 | 0.05 |
| Schizophrenia Diagnosis | 0.60 (0.44-0.81) | 0.0007 | 0.06 |
| Model 3: Odds of receipt of Buprenorphine only compared to Buprenorphine and Methadone in same year | |||
| Age (10 year increments) | 1.06 (1.02-1.10) | 0.003 | 0.05 |
| Urban Residence | 0.81 (0.71-0.91) | 0.004 | −0.05 |
| VA Pension Receipt | 0.78 (0.64-0.96) | 0.0183 | −0.03 |
| Black Race | 0.76 (0.65-0.88) | 0.0004 | −0.05 |
The greater the absolute value of the standardized coefficient, the greater the predicted change in the probability of the outcome given a 1 -standard deviation change in the corresponding predictor variable, holding constant the other predictors in the model.
