[QUOTE="YukonGlocker, post: 2876205, member: 425"] No, their estimation methods are quite common; and it's a powerful and useful method, especially because they are averaging across those "studies since 1999". Those prior studies were actual counts of errors leading to deaths, and are a good estimator of the same thing happening in other facilities. Some will be more, and some less, but the average across studies is a great estimator in this case given that they are using studies with 100,000+ people in them. [/QUOTE]
