  1. ASCVD, Atherosclerotic cardiovascular disease; HF, Heart failure
  2. aValues in 2019 US dollars. All differences were significant at 95% confidence interval. Covariates in fully adjusted models include: age (10-year intervals), insurance coverage, sex, race/ethnicity, marital status, family income, region, year, and comorbid conditions (arthritis, asthma, cancer, high cholesterol, COPD, and depression)
  3. bComorbidities of interest were ASCVD, HF, and kidney disease
  4. cFor two-part regression: first part: logit; second part: generalized linear model (family = Poisson, link = log)
  5. dFor two-part regression: first part: logit; second part: generalized linear model (family = gamma, link = log)
  6. eFor two-part regression: first part: logit; second part: generalized linear model (family = inverse gaussian, link = log)
