Overactive bladder/urgency urinary incontinence treatment provision was associated with American Indian/Alaska Native and Black/African American race, Latina ethnicity, Medicaid, low-income Medicare, or Medicare Advantage insurance. Patients with Black/African American race and with lower EMHI had higher odds of receiving anticholinergic therapy and lower odds of receiving β 3 -agonist medication, despite higher likelihood of specialty care.
