Descriptive Statistics

We will continue to work on the “Dataset NHAMCS—National Ambulatory and Medical Care Survey” spreadsheet provided below in order to complete the following exercises. It is a national sample of visits to emergency departments (EDs) in non-institutional general and short-stay hospitals, exclusive of federal, military, and Veterans Administration hospitals, located in the 50 United States and the District of Columbia. Save the dataset on your thumb drive because we will also be using this in the future.
