In a ratio if numerator is increased and denominator decrease new ratio is more than the old ratio and vice versa.
By looking at the figures we can see for 2013 % paid by patient across all
years is highest and similarly % paid bt primary insurance lowest. this gives the fisr answer
Greatest =2013.
In 2008
% paid bypaitient's is lowest and % paid by primary insurance highest .
So this gives us the lowest ration
Lowest =2008
