For this week's exercise, we need to try a few logit models (see this link for more informa!on:
h"ps://stats.idre.ucla.edu/r/dae/logit-regression/)
Track 1 EXCEL: Please run the three models (using the usual HMGT400Hospital.CSV
dataset) and complete the tables. Use Excel Online with the XLMiner Analysis ToolPak add-in
(FREE) and data uploaded to OneDrive. You can insert the ToolPak by clicking "Insert", then
"Office Add-ins" and then select the Data Analy!cs add-in called "XLMiner Analysis ToolPak"
(not the visualiza!on app). Create an extract of our class data file and upload the data extract
to OneDrive.
Logit Model 1: Run a logit model to explain the "being a member of a network" variable
(system_member). What is the impact of hospital costs on determining the "being a member
of a network" variable? Or what is the rela!onship between "being a member of a network"
and hospital costs (Logit Model 1)

Logit Model 2: What is the impact of hospital costs and hospital revenue on determining the
"being a member of a network" variable? Or what is the rela!onship between "being a

Based on your findings please recommend 3 policies and discuss the impact of being on a
network on hospital cost, hospital revenue and out its impact on ra!o-Medicare-discharge
and ra!o-Medicaid-discharge. Do you recommend keeping a membership for a hospital?
Why or why not?
Please a"ach any plo"ed or graphed informa!on you want to use to make your case.
NOTE: A"er comple!ng Exercise 5 students may start on the Final Exam (see content in
week 8). The final Exam format follows Exercises 1 to 5 with regard to the data analysis. So
go back and review the examples I emailed to you, and my feedback.
======================================
Track 2 RStudio: If you chose to use Rstudio accomplish the following:
1. Run a logit model and use being a member of the network and find out its impact on
hospital ownership and hospital beds. (Model 1)
