متن کاملGrouping hospitals by quality–A PRIDIT approach with bootstrapping
PRIDIT, a combination of PCA and Ridit scoring, has been used to rank hospitals by quality. Here, we show how the additional use of bootstrapping can be used to segment hospitals by quality. Specifically, we demonstrate how to generate boostrapped standard errors of the PRIDIT score. We further show how the combination of scores and standard errors can be interpreted at the local level through ...
