Hi there,
I performed a recurrent events analysis to evaluate hazard of cumulative hospitalizations for patients over an 18 year period, by insurance type (see included figure). I did this using "stset end, failure(status) exit(time .) id (patient_id) time0 (start) scale(365.25)" and created the figure using "sts graph, cumhaz by(primary_source_of_payment)".
Is there a command I can use to learn what the total predicted number of hospitalizations will be over the study period of 18 years, by insurance type? Looking at this figure, I estimate that patients with public insurance will have 9-10 hospitalizations by 18 years of age - is there a way to identify the exact number of predicted total admissions?
Thanks in advance for your suggestions!
