  1. ORs were estimated using a mixed logistic regression model that included age, sex, race, insurance status, diagnosis, history of stroke/TIA, presence of cardiovascular-related comorbidity, stroke severity, urban residence, distance to the clinic, organizational readiness, and clinic setting. Analysis included participants that were offered or scheduled a clinic visit
