Abstract In this paper, we study the asymptotic distributions of the functions of the occurrence/exposure rates of several groups of patients as well as Berry-Esseen bound on the distribution function of the occurrence/exposure rate. Asymptotic distributions of functions of the simple risk rates are also derived. The results are useful in not only medical research but also in the area of reliability.
