Abstract:
One driver of the corporatization of medicine has been private equity (PE) firms' acquisition of physician practices.

This article then suggests how to balance the interests of health care as a commercial enterprise with health care as a critical human right.

Regression Analysis
In regression analysis, a regression equation is determined based on the line of best fit– a line that best fits the data points plotted in a graph. This line is also called the regression line. The algebraic equation for the regression line is called the regression equation. It is represented as:
