NOTES: The Korn–Graubard method was used to calculate 95% confidence intervals. Reference is the category to which all other categories in the characteristic are compared. Practice size of physician offices represents the number of physicians at a respondent’s reporting location, or the office where they see the most patients, and is categorized as small (1–3 physicians), medium (4–10 physicians), and large (11 physicians or more).
