Centro de Documentacion de Fundación MAPFRE - Predicting the frequency and amount of health care expenditures

Notes: Sumario: This article extends the standard two-part model for predicting health care expenditures to the case where multiple events may occur within a one-year period. The first part of the extended model represents the frequency of events, such as the number of inpatient hospital stays or outpatient visits, and the second part models expenditure per event. Both component models also use independent variables that consist of an individuals demographic and access characteristics, socioeconomic status, health status, health insurance coverage, mployment status, and industry classification.Related records: En: North American actuarial journal. - Schaumburg : Society of Actuaries, 1997- = ISSN 1092-0277. - 01/09/2011 Tomo 15 Número 3 - 2011 Materia / lugar / evento: Seguro de salud Gastos Costes económicos Análisis costo-beneficio Modelos predictivos Matemática del seguro Other categories: 6
