* ORs and 95% CI for diagnostic interval >60 days adjusted for age, race/ethnicity, insurance, primary care physician, employment status, patient felt lump, and pathology result using multivariate logistic regression.
† OR represents change in odds of diagnostic interval >60 days per year of increasing age.
