^aThe reference group for all categorical variables are as follows: cisgender woman (gender), White (race), heterosexual (sexual identity), and less than Bachelor’s degree (education).

^bThere were 2570 observations for any delays, 907 observations for delays in dental care, 907 observations for delays in diagnostics, and 907 observations for delays in preventive care.
