Abbreviations: PCP, primary care providers; SE, standard error; VA, Department of Veterans Affairs; VAMC, VA medical center; WH-PACT, women’s health Patient-Aligned Care Team.

Note: The regressions used maximum likelihood estimation.

Fourteen respondents (3 PCPs and 11 staff) who did not respond to all the gender sensitivity questions were excluded. PCPs included physicians, nurse practitioners, and physician assistants. Staff included care managers, medical assistants, medical technicians, and clerks.
