95% CI = 95% confidence interval; ADI = Area Deprivation Index; OR = odds ratio; Ref. = reference.

Patients missing ADI and from practices with <20 patients were not included in this analysis. Variables included in the multivariate models: age, sex, race/ethnicity, insurance, number of visits, geographic division, and ADI.
