st: Combining multiple observations by an ID variable

Dear statalist
I have a large dataset with the following variables: Nr(patient ID),
Gender, Date of birth, Age group (0-9 etc), Length of stay (LOS),
Nr_of_stay (N-Break), Cost, Total_sum_cost (per patient per episode),
DRG, DRG-Weight, and ICD-10. I wish to look at the characteristics of
different patients groups and Im trying to group all the patients in
groups according to resource usage. How to I do this so that each group
represents 10 % of the patients ranging in sum cost and how do I detect
the top 5% and 1% of patients with the highest costs?
Kind regards
Ismail Abdi Ismail
