.. I guess he wants the formula for converting estimated coefficients into marginal effects.

"adjust" can mean a great many operations, what exact
mathematical operation do you want to perform on your
coefficients?

PS. One alternative direction you may look into is to compute
the integral over the unobserved group-level variable by
simulation using a similar argument that underlies Maximum
Simulated Likelihood, see e.g. the special issue on MSL in the
Stata Journal: <http://www.stata-journal.com/sj6-2.html>. This
is by no means a complete suggestion, it is just an intuition
that one possible solution may be found in that direction.
