Participants allocate resources to determine health of individuals. Identification comes from random variation in resource productivity and information on income and its causal effect. We gather data (26,286 observations) from a sample of UK adults (n = 337) and estimate pooled and participant-specific social preferences while accounting for noise. The median person has strong aversion to pure health inequality, challenging the health maximisation objective of economic evaluation. Aversion to health inequality is even stronger when it is related to income. However, the median person prioritises health of poorer individuals less than is assumed in the standard measure of income-related health inequality. On average, aversion to that inequality does not become stronger when low income is known to cause ill-health. There is substantial heterogeneity in all three types of inequality aversion.</p></div>","PeriodicalId":50186,"journal":{"name":"Journal of Health Economics","volume":"94 ","pages":"Article 102856"},"PeriodicalIF":3.5,"publicationDate":"2024-01-23","publicationTypes":"Journal Article","fieldsOfStudy":null,"isOpenAccess":false,"openAccessPdf":"https://www.sciencedirect.com/science/article/pii/S0167629624000018/pdfft?md5=c739abc03c78906b4e2e9ecad8d513dd&pid=1-s2.0-S0167629624000018-main.pdf","citationCount":null,"resultStr":null,"platform":"Semanticscholar","paperid":"139545788","PeriodicalName":null,"FirstCategoryId":null,"ListUrlMain":null,"RegionNum":2,"RegionCategory":"经济学","ArticlePicture":[],"TitleCN":null,"AbstractTextCN":null,"PMCID":"OA","EPubDate":null,"PubModel":null,"JCR":null,"JCRName":null,"Score":null,"Total":0}

After the Affordable Care Act, many uninsured Americans gained improved access to Medicaid.

Additionally I show that most of these registrations would have been privately insured otherwise but provide suggestive evidence that this is better explained by improved access to subsidized private coverage due to other ACA reforms than from candidates with private coverage before the ACA switching to Medicaid coverage after expansion. This suggests that although the ACA improved access to the transplantation system, access is still limited for candidates who live far from centers.</p></div>","PeriodicalId":50186,"journal":{"name":"Journal of Health Economics","volume":"94 ","pages":"Article 102858"},"PeriodicalIF":3.5,"publicationDate":"2024-01-14","publicationTypes":"Journal Article","fieldsOfStudy":null,"isOpenAccess":false,"openAccessPdf":"https://www.sciencedirect.com/science/article/pii/S0167629624000031/pdfft?md5=fb651f1a9ecdd4ff139ff9c6e5050d2e&pid=1-s2.0-S0167629624000031-main.pdf","citationCount":null,"resultStr":null,"platform":"Semanticscholar","paperid":"139470142","PeriodicalName":null,"FirstCategoryId":null,"ListUrlMain":null,"RegionNum":2,"RegionCategory":"经济学","ArticlePicture":[],"TitleCN":null,"AbstractTextCN":null,"PMCID":"OA","EPubDate":null,"PubModel":null,"JCR":null,"JCRName":null,"Score":null,"Total":0}

Several strands of recent research call this implication into question. Generalized Risk-Adjusted Cost-Effectiveness (GRACE) demonstrates theoretically that baseline health status influences value, so long as consumers are not risk-neutral over health. Prior empirical literature casts doubt on risk-neutral expected utility-maximization in the health domain. We estimate utility over HRQoL in a nationally representative U.S. population and use our estimates to measure risk preferences over health. We find that individuals are risk-seeking at low levels of health, become risk-averse at health equal to 0.485 (measured on a 0–1 scale), and are most risk-averse at perfect health (coefficient of relative risk aversion = 4.51). We develop the resulting implications for medical decision making, cost-effectiveness analyses, and the proper theory of health-related decision making under uncertainty.</p></div>","PeriodicalId":50186,"journal":{"name":"Journal of Health Economics","volume":"94 ","pages":"Article 102857"},"PeriodicalIF":3.5,"publicationDate":"2024-01-09","publicationTypes":"Journal Article","fieldsOfStudy":null,"isOpenAccess":false,"openAccessPdf":"https://www.sciencedirect.com/science/article/pii/S016762962400002X/pdfft?md5=3d069fd1403395b246cadbf2b106af2d&pid=1-s2.0-S016762962400002X-main.pdf","citationCount":null,"resultStr":null,"platform":"Semanticscholar","paperid":"139413066","PeriodicalName":null,"FirstCategoryId":null,"ListUrlMain":null,"RegionNum":2,"RegionCategory":"经济学","ArticlePicture":[],"TitleCN":null,"AbstractTextCN":null,"PMCID":"OA","EPubDate":null,"PubModel":null,"JCR":null,"JCRName":null,"Score":null,"Total":0}
