  1. Notes: HR: hazard ratio; CI: confident interval
  2. a: Model adjusted for gender, age group, marital status, education, insurance, outpatient services, inpatient services, residence, family size, family economic level, and socioeconomic development level
  3. b: Based on the multivariate model, in this model, the definition of CHE (household-medical OOP expenditure exceeding 45% household total expenditure net of food expenditure) was replaced as household-medical OOP expenditure exceeding 25% of total household expenditure
  4. c: Based on the multivariate model, in this model, we changed the original selected main respondents in households with 2 eligible respondents to the 5270 excluded participants
  5. d: Based on the multivariate model, in this model, we used the nighttime light level to indicate socioeconomic development rather than gross regional products
