Note: In total, 13,176 unique ED visits were contributed by 6,812 unique individuals. Each outcome was classified using primary diagnosis ICD-10 codes as indicated in Table S1. Age, sex, self-reported race, and public (i.e., government-provided) insurance information was extracted from the electronic health record. Community deprivation was derived using a principal components analysis of six census tract–level American community survey variables. High community deprivation was defined as greater than the median of all census tracts in Hamilton County. %ile, Percentile; ICD-10, International Statistical Classification of Diseases and Related Health Problems, Tenth Revision; PTSD, post-traumatic stress disorder.
