Abstract

This study investigates the effect of pension age on hospitalization for cardiovascular diseases using administrative social security and hospital discharge records in Italy. The endogeneity of the retirement decision is addressed using an instrumental variable strategy exploiting the exogenous variation in pension age determined by quarter of birth. Results indicate a detrimental effect of higher pension age only for retirees who, before retirement, were suffering worse health and were employed in lower quality and more physically demanding jobs. Among them, a 1-year delay in pension claiming increases the risk of hospitalization for cardiovascular diseases by approximately 2.6 percentage points.

工作还是不工作?提高退休年龄对心血管健康的影响

本研究利用意大利的行政社会保障和医院出院记录，调查养老金年龄对心血管疾病住院治疗的影响。使用工具变量策略利用由出生四分之一决定的养老金年龄的外生变化来解决退休决定的内生性问题。研究结果表明，提高养老金年龄只对退休前健康状况较差、从事质量较低、体力要求较高的工作的退休人员产生不利影响。其中，延迟1年领取养恤金将使因心血管疾病住院的风险增加约2.6个百分点。
