Multivariate logistic regression controlling for race, insurance type, age at primary palatoplasty, and presence of 22q11.2 microdeletion syndrome revealed private insurance was associated with decreased odds of secondary velopharyngeal surgery (OR\u2009=\u20090.230, 95% CI: 0.069\u20130.765,\n                      <jats:italic>p<\/jats:italic>\n                      \u2009=\u20090.017), whereas Asian race was associated with increased odds (OR\u2009=\u20095.853, 95% CI: 1.105\u201330.998,\n                      <jats:italic>p<\/jats:italic>\n                      \u2009=\u20090.038).
