Hospital length of stay: A cross-specialty analysis and Beta-geometric model
Hospital length of stay: A cross-specialty analysis and Beta-geometric model (Plos One).
The typical hospital Length of Stay (LOS) distribution is known to be right-skewed, to vary considerably across Diagnosis Related Groups (DRGs), and to contain markedly high values, in significant proportions.

Results
We propose a novel Beta-Geometric model that shows a good fit with observed data and reproduces these empirical properties of LOS.
