Replication Data for "Impacts of temperature and its variability on mortality in New England"

Because of privacy issues, the Center for Medicare and Medicaid Services requires each investigator wishing to analyze their data to individually submit a request for the data. Consequently, the Medicare data are not included here. However, we have included our programs, the temperature data by ZIP code, the data of covariates that we used, and investigators can obtain the Medicare data from the Center.

由于隐私合规问题，美国医疗保险和医疗补助服务中心（Center for Medicare and Medicaid Services）要求所有希望对其数据开展分析的研究者，必须单独提交数据使用申请。因此，本次数据集未包含医疗保险（Medicare）相关数据。不过，本数据集已涵盖研究所用的分析程序、按邮政编码（ZIP code）划分的气温数据以及协变量（covariates）相关数据集；研究者可通过该服务中心获取医疗保险数据。
