Adjusted aggregate scores of provided as recommended preventive care and cardiovascular preventive carea: adjusted dataa.

aData were adjusted for age, sex, civil status, legal status, occupation and treatment center. In a second model we adjusted also for the number of outpatient visits by performing a sensitivity analyses and found similar results. Detailed numbers for each indicator are provided in the Table 2 by Collet et al[16].bIf care was refused by eligible patients, it was counted as provided care to measure physician-initiated care. When care was provided less frequently than specified (i.e., once a year instead of twice a year or only once instead of annually), it was counted as unprovided care to measure physician adherence to recommendations.cWhen care was contraindicated, the patient was not counted as eligible, thus reducing the denominator.
