PRCDA purchased/referred care delivery areas; IHS Indian Health Service; AI/AN American Indian/Alaska Native; CI confidence interval; W non-Hispanic white

a

AI/AN race is reported by NPCR and SEER registries or through linkage with the IHS patient registration database. Updated bridged intercensal population estimates significantly overestimate AI/AN populations of Hispanic origin. All analyses are limited to non-Hispanic AI/AN populations. Non-Hispanic white was chosen as the reference population. The term “non-Hispanic” is omitted when discussing both groups

b

Rates are per 100,000 and age-adjusted to the 2000 US standard population (19 age groups-Census P25–1130). Confidence intervals (Tiwari model) are 95% for rates and ratios

c

Rate ratios are AI/AN versus white and calculated in SEER*Stat software before rounding of rates and may not equal the RR calculated from rates presented in table

d

The rate ratio indicates that the AI/AN rate is significantly different than the rate for whites (P<0.05).
