Abstract
Social network analytic approaches have been previously proposed to identifying key metrics of physician care coordination [1]. Optimizing care coordination among physicians is a primary national concern for which yields significant cuts in medical care costs. We present a variation of physician collaboration metrics namely: 'care density', with our proposed 'weighted care density', 'time varying care density', and 'time varying weighted care density'.
