Tweedie distributions for fitting semicontinuous health care utilization cost data (1608.04910v1)
Published 17 Aug 2016 in stat.AP and q-bio.QM
Abstract: We explore a statistical distribution that can simultaneously model the probability of zero outcome for non-users of health care utilization and continuous costs for users. We compare this distribution to other com- monly used models on example data and show that it fits cost data well and has some appealing properties that provide flexible use.
