a
Variables examined at the smallest division available. Urban/rural status was examined at the census tract level, poverty was examined at the county subdivision level, and education was examined at the census block group level.
b
The percentage of Health Department sites in rural locations were significantly higher than that of practice sites (p<0.001).
c
Health Department sites were less likely than practice sites to be in high poverty areas (p<0.001).
