Conditional logit models of choice of practice. All models have the same covariates, distance specification and choice set definitions as in Table 2. Distance coefficient is ${\widehat{\mathit{\beta }}}_d+2{\widehat{\mathit{\beta }}}_{d^2}\overline{d}+3{\widehat{\mathit{\beta }}}_{d^3}\overline{d^2}$ where $\overline{d}$ and $\overline{d^2}$ are computed as the mean of the LSOA centroid to practice distance and squared distance for the whole sample. MRS is the coefficient on quality divided by the distance coefficient. Number of LSOAs is 2,870 in all models. Standard errors clustered at LSOA level are in parentheses. *p < 0.05, **p < 0.01, ***p < 0.001.
