Hi All,
I have a dataset with count data for length-of-stay (days) in hospice care.I am using a poisson regression model with the negative binomial distribution (nbreg command) to correct for overdispersion of zeros in the data. However, the estimates I got are based on the means. How can I obtain estimates based on the median length-of-stay.
Thanks a bunch.
