The dashboard is located in the tableau package
Our interest is to assess the medical cost people have spent with respect to their age, gender and body mass index. An application that uses these statistics would be insurance companies to make calculations for insurance costs of medical plans. We are interested in multiple variables in our dataset, age, bmi, childrens, smoker in correlation with their medical cost. We will be focusing on medical cost as our primary variable with relation to other variables. We can calculate the mean medical cost for certain age groups, and compare the medical costs between men and women. There are many inspirations and questions to assess from this data set and it is certainly possible to make an user dashboard.
