  1. Model was additionally adjusted for sex, patient ethnicity, patient race, insurance status, and facility urbanicity
  2. P-values associated with inclusion of the variable as a whole in the model are displayed in the same row as the variable name
  3. Abbreviations: OR Odds ratio, CI Confidence interval, Ref Reference group, AJCC American Joint Commission on Cancer
  4. aAll cases with unknown facility type also had unknown facility location and vice versa, so these odds ratios pertain to both unknown facility type and unknown facility location
