Note: CI = confidence interval; ED med = everyday medical discrimination; ED non-med = everyday nonmedical discrimination; LT med = lifetime medical discrimination; LT non-med = lifetime nonmedical discrimination; OR = odds ratio. Odds ratios adjusted for age, gender, education, marital status, self-rated health, hospitalization, outpatient surgery, and/or nursing home stay in past 2 years, regular health care provider, body mass index, current smoker, log household income, and log household net wealth.
