Using data from rural counties in Western China, we find that attending a magnet high school significantly increases students' college entrance examination scores and the probability of being admitted to college.
18Students who did not enroll in college are assigned a value of 1 for the probability of being admitted.
The probability of being admitted for LGBS was estimated using logistic regression with race, year, and year by race interaction as predictors, controlling for numerous patient and hospital characteristics.
The objective of the present study is to test whether the probability of being admitted from the ED is correlated to the in-hospital occupancy at the time of patient presentation in the ED.
Using the estimate from our preferred specification in Column (5), which controls for individual characteristics, the full diagnosis vector, and hospital fixed effects, the probability of being admitted to the hospital through the Emergency Department is approximately 38% higher for the uninsured compared to the insured.
Each hospital has a catchment population of 220,000 individuals, of which 20,000 are known 'high risk' individuals that have a 10 times higher probability of being admitted to the hospital, compared to the non-'high risk' individuals.
As a result, the probability of being admitted might be higher than those under other healthcare settings.
PS matching does not capture the effect of ICU admission in nonadmitted patients who had a very low probability of being admitted.
The most important cost determinant seems to be the place of residence before stroke: living single results in substantially higher costs, because the probability of being admitted to a nursing home is elevated substantially, even with limited disabilities.
