Notes:

Hospitalizations are inpatient hospital stays as measured by stays that were completed during the specified year. The number of hospitalizations is often greater than the number of persons hospitalized since some persons are hospitalized more than once during a year.

Percent of all hospitalizations for the specified year.

Hospitalization Rates are the number of hospitalizations per 10,000 population for the year.

** Indicates the number of hospitalizations is too small (less the 6) to calculate statistically reliable rate.
