^a The 2006 data reflect care for the period 10/1/06 to 12/31/06; 2002 data reflect care for the period 4/1/02 to 6/30/02.

^b A facility had to have at least 30 residents in the denominator for a chronic care measure to be calculated; therefore, the number of facilities may vary for each measure reported in a State.
