CI, confidence interval; SHCN, special health care needs; FPL, federal poverty level; FI, household food insufficiency
Constant term omitted from table
Any FI indicated any response other than that the household “could always afford to eat good nutritious meals” over the past year
SCHN*FI indicated an interaction between SHCN status and the presence of any FI
Health insurance coverage for all of the past year indicated insured status
Having any unmet medical or mental health care needs in the past year indicated an unmet care need
If someone living in the child’s household used cigarettes, cigars, or pipe tobacco and smoked inside the home, then “smoking in house” was indicated
