Logistic regression analysis using generalized estimating equations (logit link function and binomial distribution); controlled for admission type, age, health plan status, logarithmic transformation of the Charlson comorbidity index and length of stay.

†

Marginal P_HIE = the mean probability of different healthcare procedures among HIE exposure patients.

‡

Marginal P_non-HIE = the mean probability of these procedures if patients with HIE exposure were not accessed by HIE.

Difference = (number of encounters from HIE exposure patients) × (marginal P_HIE−marginal P_non-HIE).

HIE, health information exchange; NS, non-significant.
