Weighted Quantile Regression for Analyzing Health Care Cost Data
... knowledge of how the covariates influence high cost can be obtained by estimating a high quantile of the conditional distribution, for example the 0.9 conditional quantile. By considering different quantiles, we are able to obtain a more complete picture of the effects of the covariates on health ca ...
