Group differences: Case, controlling for age; F= 1054.0, P<0.0001; DS<ASD<ASD+ID<ID only

Age category, controlling for case; F=898.6, P<0.0001; 21–29<30–39<40–49<50–59<60+

ASD: Autism spectrum disorder; ID: Intellectual disability; DS: Down syndrome; YPT: Years person time; ID-only: claims for ID without claims for ASD or DS

Estimates calculated using generalized linear regression with random intercept for subject and log number of visits as outcome. Model includes categorical age, case status, year of service, member gender, and age*case interaction term. Data presented are back-transformed.
