Hi All
I am using survey data. I would like to compare total
healthcare costs in two groups. The variable total
healthcare costs is not normally distributed,
therefore one would run non-parametric statistics.
Can someone tell me how I can run a non-parametric
statistics accounting for the survey data?
I have compared the two groups with lincom using
svymean but I feel I should use non-parametric
statistics instead of comparing the means.
I am sorry if I am missing something trivial. Thanks
for your time.
Anju
