There was a median of 2 ED visits (IQR 1\u20135) and 1 inpatient stay (IQR 0\u20132). Higher age was inversely associated with ICU stays (Odds Ratio [OR] 0.96; 95% Confidence Interval [CI] 0.96\u20130.97) and life-extending procedures (OR 0.96; 95% CI 0.95\u20130.96). Black and Hispanic patients experienced higher rates of ED visits, inpatient hospitalizations, ICU admissions, life-extending procedures, and in-hospital deaths relative to White patients. On average, 15 (7.5) medications were prescribed in the last year. Enhanced care continuity correlated with reduced hospital (OR 0.72; 95% CI 0.70\u20130.74) and ED visits (OR 0.71; 95% CI 0.69\u20130.87) and fewer life-extending procedures (OR 0.71; 95% CI 0.64\u20130.79).<\/jats:p>\n                  <\/jats:sec>\n                  <jats:sec>\n                    <jats:title>Conclusions:<\/jats:title>\n                    <jats:p>This study underscored the complex healthcare needs of people with LBD during their final year, which was influenced by age and race.
