Regression Analysis of Cost per Child by Age Group
ثبت نشده
چکیده
As we have discussed in this report, the existing literature and common sense suggested some initial hypotheses that relate the cost of CDC care to certain aspects of the setting in which that care is provided. Specifically, we hypothesized that larger centers might have a lower cost per child due to their economies of scale, centers located in areas with a high cost of living would have greater care costs because of their higher wage rates for caregivers, and centers in remote areas might have greater care costs because they might have to pay higher wages to attract caregivers to their remote locations.
