520 $a In this thesis we would like to assess the benefit of screening in breast cancer detection. For this purpose, the Health Insurance Plan data will be analyzed.
520 $a If screening is beneficial, we expect to see higher early stage detection in the study group compare to the control group which hopefully will lead to a better survival probability.
520 $a Our analysis shows that there is a significantly higher combined stage I detection proportion in the study group compared to the control group (50.00% in the control group as opposed to 67.77% in the study group). Furthermore, the study group has a significantly lower proportion of breast cancer deaths than the control group. The Kaplan-Meier estimate shows that the study group has a better survival function than the control group. In addition to these, we shows that there exists no significant lead time. Lastly, we construct a Markov chain model for future analysis.
