Notes

a

Models were adjusted for CHC patient population demograpics [i.e., clinic-level distribution of sex, age, FPL, and Charlson Comorbidity Index score as of 12/31/2018 (% of non-Hispanic whites with a score ≥6, % of Hispanics with a score ≥6, % of non-Hispanic blacks with a score ≥6,)], and state-level factors including state marketplace type,(21) 2014 minimum wage(22) and unemployment rate,(23) and 2013 uninsured rate.(24)

b

DD estimates of post vs. pre rate ratios between race/ethnic groups stratified by expansion status.

c

DDD estimates of post vs. pre rate ratios between race/ethnic groups comparing expansion versus non-expansion.
