  • Crude model=combined process-of-care measure, no other covariates.

  • Adjusted model=combined measure +14 covariates (demographics, medical history and diabetes characteristics).

  • Covariates:

  • Demographics: Age, Male, Education levels, Income levels, Living companion.

  • Medical hx: hx of alcohol problems, smoker, BMI category, co-morbidities, physical activity.

  • Diabetes: type 2 or undetermined, on insulin, DM complications, DM over 10 years.

  • *p≤0.05.

  • †Complete case: yes=1; no=0; all other answers=missing.

  • ‡Worst case: yes=1; all other answers (HbA1c-unaware for HbA1c; no, missing, do not know for all other PoC)=0.
