1. Yes means that these services were provided. 2. % change is calculated as 100 x (.0102 - .0203)/.0203 = -49.75% reflecting 49.75% less imaging for MC. 3. RR or relative risk is the ratio of CC/MC where, for example, 0.0203/0.0102 = 1.99, which indicates that imaging was 1.99 times more likely for CC subjects relative to MC subjects. 4. 95% confidence interval (CI) shows the lower and upper bounds (LB and UB) for relative risks. 5. p < values reflecting the likelihood of rejecting the null hypothesis (Ho) of no differences in CC & MC risks. | ||||||||||

1. None means that these no services were necessary after 6 months of care from baseline. 2. %change is calculated as 100 x((0.0226 - 0.1016)/0.1016) = -77.72% reflecting less care after 6 months for MC.
3. RR or relative risk is the ratio of CC/MC where, for example, 0.1016/0.0226 = 4.49, which indicates that downstream care was 4.49 times more likely for CC subjects relative to MC subjects.
4. 95% confidence interval (CI) shows the lower and upper bounds (LB and UB) for relative risks.
5. p < values reflecting the likelihood of rejecting the null hypothesis (Ho) of no differences in CC & MC risks.
