Each row shows the standard deviation in coding score for a different partition of hospitals (hospital counts, which apply to columns 1–4, shown in column 5). Column 1 uses no controls to calculate the hospital effects. Column 2 adds controls for patient characteristics observable upon admission, and column 3 adds histories of chronic conditions. Column 4 adds physician fixed effects. All results are adjusted for sampling variation.
