STATA v15.1
I have 3 level data.. patients, surgeons, and facilities
Surgeons and facilities are crossed, as surgeons can operate at more than one facility and I also included a random interaction that was significant
I'm trying to parse the variance explained at each level, including how much variance is explained by my patient-level fixed effects
---
My naive model (no pt lvl effects) is...
mixed caseprice || _all: R.loc || surgeon: || loc:

With these results, I believe, my ICC surgeon is ~ 13%, ICC location ~ 13%, ICC for combination of surgeon and location is 33%, but not sure what I can (if anything) say about the patient level variance explained?
