  1. Note: Relative hazard (RHs) ratios were weighted and estimated from Weibull regression models. The total analytic sample included 20,532 individuals (n=11,830 for women; n=8,702 for men). Model I controlled for sociodemographic background. Model II added two measures for enrollment in national health insurance programs. Model III added measures for health behaviors and Model IV further added measures for baseline health status (IADL disability, ADL disability, and cognitive impairment). All models controlled for survey year and proxy responses to the question of adequate access to healthcare. All covariates were fixed at the first interview in the period 2005-2014. Due to space constraints, the HRs for covariates are not reported for the 44 estimated models (available upon request). +p<0.1, *p<0.05, **p<0.01, ***p<0.001
