CareDensity
Author: Robin Denz
Description
CareDensity is a small R-Package which can be used to calculate the care density index and the fragmented care density.
Installation
A developmental version of this package may be installed from github using the remotes R-Package:
```R library(remotes)
remotes::install_github("RobinDenz1/CareDensity") ```
Bug Reports and Feature Requests
If you encounter any bugs or have any specific feature requests, please file an Issue.
Examples
Suppose you have the following patient-provider data:
R
data <- data.frame(PatID=c("1", "1", "1", "2", "2", "3", "3", "4", "5"),
ArztID=c("A", "C", "D", "A", "D", "A", "D", "D", "C"))
This is essentially a description of the following bipartite network:

The simple care density can then be calculated like this:
R
care_density(data)
