On page 225 of the initial publication, the results for cervical cancer screening in Table 2 mistakenly excluded HCPCS codes G0123, G0124, G0141, G0143–145, G0147, G0148, P3000, P3001 and Q0091. After incorporating these additional codes, the mean annual prevalence of cervical cancer screening increased to 9.8% from the reported 3.1%. The coefficients in Table 3 and the categorization of HRRs were not meaningfully affected. We regret this error.
Table 2 updates: Low-value diagnostic services: Annual Cervical Cancer Screening: Mean: 9.8%, Affected National Population (Millions): 14.3 Min/Max: 4.3–18.6%, IQR: 8.1%–11.0%, COV: 0.24, Annual Waste: $23.4M
