I need to estimate a survival-type model (either a Cox model or a
parametric model will do) with two competing hazards. Is there any way to
do this with stata so that I would get a two coefficients for each
independent variable, ie, one for each of the two hazards? (what I need
could be viewed as a survival equivalent of a multinomial logit model).
If yes, I would then like to even do something a little more complicated,
because one of the hazards can repeat while the other can happen only once
(like the medical studies where someone can contract an illness many times
but only die once).
Any insight would be appreciated. Also, if not stata, might there be any
other packages that could do this?
cheers, Arturs
