In this article, we introduce a new command, sfcount, to fit count-data stochastic frontier models. Although originally designed to estimate production and production-cost functions, this new command can be used to estimate mean regression functions

Background: For decades, U.S. rural areas have experienced shortages of primary care providers. Nurse practitioners (NPs) are helping to reduce that shortage. However, NP scope of practice regulations vary from state-to-state ranging from autonomous

Recently, some rural health clinics (RHCs) throughout the country have chosen to join groups of health care providers in accountable care organizations (ACOs). Examined are characteristics of Southeastern RHCs and the counties they serve; it is shown

In this paper we derive an alternative measure for structural unemployment using a stochastic frontier analysis. This measure, by empirical design, is always less than total unemployment and it is, thus, more consistent with the theoretical descripti

This article introduces a new count data stochastic frontier model that researchers can use in order to study efficiency in production when the output variable is a count (so that its conditional distribution is discrete). We discuss parametric and n

Background Little is known about the impact of joining an Accountable Care Organization (ACO) on primary care provider organization’s costs. The purpose of this study was to determine whether joining an ACO is associated with an increase in a Rural

An unresolved debate in behavioural choice research surrounds specifying individual choice sets. To overcome the limitations of deterministic and probabilistic approaches in a framework consistent with individual optimizing behaviour, this study deve

Using bank balance sheet data for Croatia for 1994 to 2000, this study estimates a Fourier-flexible frontier cost function. Specification tests indicate that the stochastic frontier model with a Fourier-flexible form with a truncated normal distribut

We investigate how closely NBA teams play up to their potential. We find that shooting, rebounding, stealing the ball and blocking shots raise the number of potential wins while turnovers lower it. We also learn that better coaching and defensive pro
