PAM patient activation measure

The probability that total costs were lower in a certain PAM group compared to the first PAM group was investigated by replicating the regression analyses using bias-corrected accelerated bootstrapping with 5000 replications. The percentage described in this table presents the percentage of the 5000 bootstrap replications that showed lower total costs
