  1. Time variable referred as t was beginning at 1 in the year of 2002 and incrementing by 1 up to the year of 2017; policy variable referred as Pt (an intervention time indicator) was coded 0 pre-intervention and 1 post-intervention; the marginal effect of the policy referred as [t − TI]Pt (a slope change variable) was equal to zero at the time of the intervention (TI) and incrementing by 1 up to the year of 2017. dx/dy referred as marginal effect was estimated by using multi-level mixed effect logistic regression models which had a random intercept for center and adjusted for individual-level demographics and disease history listed in Table 1
