Abbreviations: NAMCS: National Ambulatory Medical Care Survey; NHAMCS: National Hospital Ambulatory Medical Care Survey; ED: Emergency Department. a Ptrend were adjusted for age, sex, race, and payment source. b The weighted-estimate of the denominator (i.e., all adult visits) for each time period in NAMCS is 2.2 billion, 2.2 billion, 2.3 billion, 2.2 billion, 2.2 billion for 2003–2005, 2006–2008, 2009–2011, 2012–2014, and 2015–2018, respectively. The weighted-estimate of the denominator (i.e., all adult visits) for each time period in NHAMCS is 252.9 million, 277.0 million, 308.1 million, 312.7 million, and 421.5 million for 2003–2005, 2006–2008, 2009–2011, 2012–2014, and 2015–2018, respectively.
