st: flagging significant values in a variable

Hi,
I have a dataset that has variables of rates, LCI and UCI for a number of regions in addition to a national average (rate, LCI, UCI) so that it looks like this:
rate LCI UCI region
0.9727 0.9583 0.9849 1
0.9713 0.9523 0.9867 2
0.9835 0.9667 0.9971 3
0.9790 0.9741 0.9836 99
What I would like to do is generate a flag beside each row that will flag up entries where they are significantly higher (1) or lower (2) or not significantly different (0) to region 99 - I'm unsure as to the code here and would appreciate any advice. I'm using Stata 11.2.
Best wishes
Tim
