Discussion 3 (DTDS23)

[Liz Lewis]

• Which is the best type of graph to show ranking?

• If we rank claims from most to least frequent, which service category would be at the top of the list (most frequent)?

• Which would be at the bottom?

• Is this true for both Eastern and Northern Zones, or do the rankings differ?

[Tessa Kehoe]

1. Bar graph
2. Curative Care
3. Inpatient Medical or Inpatient Obstetrics
4. Top would be the same, bottom for Northern would be a tie between Inpatient Nursery/NICU, Inpatient Obstetrics and Inpatient Surgery

[Joey Griffith]

The best type of graph to show ranking would be a bar graph because of its set up. Curative care would be at the top as most frequent, with impatient medical at the bottom. The rankings would differ slightly.

[Lisa DeAlmeida]

1. Bar graph
2. Curative care
3. For Eastern, Inpatient Medical (2) and Inpatient Obstetrics (2) and for Northern, Speech Therapy (1)

4. This is not true for both zones. They have the same top ranked service but different bottom ranked services.
