↵a Results show percentage change associated with 1 SD increase in funding (±95% CI).
↵b All models contain year effects, patient characteristics, practice characteristics.
↵c P<0.01.
↵d P<0.001.
↵e P<0.05. All models account for clustering at general practice level. CI = confidence interval. SD = standard deviation.
