Note: OR, CI, and P values for subgroup analysis for making cancellation call versus not making call to the pain clinic in a logistic regression model including variables with bivariate baseline testing results of P ≤ 0.25; or variables, such as age, race, and gender, that were selected a priori. For nominal variables like language spoken, race, and employment status, the reference group in the logistic regression models was assigned based on sample size with largest serving as reference (e.g., English language for language, Other race for race, Unknown employment status for employment, Managed care for insurance type). CI = confidence interval; N/A = not applicable.
