Note: Each cell represents the odds of healthcare delay/nonaccess or the specific type of healthcare access (shown in the first column) for those without any HI compared to those with the specific type of HI (shown in the second row), controlling for age, gender, race/ethnicity, marital status, education, income, work status, number of chronic medical conditions, and any functional limitation (vs. none). All odds are significant at p < 0.001 except those marked with ǂ (p > 0.050).
