Note: ADL = activities of daily living; CI = confidence interval; HCMS = Health Care Mail Survey; HCNS = Health Care and Nutrition Study; RRR = relative risk ratio. Busy = latent subgroup defined primarily by delay due to being too busy to go to the doctor; dislike = latent subgroup defined primarily by delay due to disliking going to the doctor; limited-access = latent subgroup defined primarily by delay due limited health care access; reference group = no delay group.
aPredisposing: race/ethnicity, educational attainment, living arrangement. bEnabling: total household income, health insurance status. cNeed: chronic illnesses, depressive symptoms, ADL limitations. dAll covariates: age, gender, race/ethnicity, educational attainment, living arrangement, total household income, health insurance status, chronic illnesses, depressive symptoms, ADL limitations.
