contents In this article, we introduce an estimator for the asymptotic variance of the Greenwood variance estimator, where the latter is crucial for assessing the accuracy of the Kaplan-Meier survival estimator. The result indicates that the asymptotic variance of the Greenwood variance estimator is considerably smaller than that of the Kaplan-Meier variance estimator. This finding emphasizes the robustness of the Greenwood estimator.
