The association between sponsorship era + model with time to first primary care visit (adjusted hazard ratio, 95% CI) [panel A] and the odds of a community health centre (CHC) visit (adjusted odds ratio, 95% CI) [panel B] in the first year of resettlement in all resettled refugees who landed in Ontario between April 1, 2008 and March 31, 2017. Adjusted for age group, sex, neighborhood deprivation index, Canadian language ability, world region of citizenship, secondary migration, and season of landing (time to first primary care visit model only) or travel time to a CHC (any CHC visit model only). Reference group is Pre-Syrian privately sponsored refugees.

Adjusted for age group, sex, neighborhood deprivation index, Canadian language ability, secondary migration, landing year and season of landing (time to first primary care visit model only) or travel time to a CHC (any CHC visit model only). Reference group is privately sponsored refugees from all other countries not specified in Figure.
