Closing down the shop: Optimal health and wealth dynamics near the end of life

Julien Hugonnier, Pascal St-Amour, Florian Pelgrin

Near the end of life, health declines, mortality risk increases, and curative care is replaced by uninsured long-term care, accelerating the fall in wealth. Whereas standard explanations emphasize inevitable aging processes, we propose a complementary clos ...

Relative Effects of the Hospital Readmissions Reduction Program on Hospitals That Serve Poorer Patients

Yun Wang, Christine Choirat

Importance: Hospitals that serve poorer populations have higher readmission rates. It is unknown whether these hospitals effectively lowered readmission rates in response to the Hospital Readmissions Reduction Program (HRRP). Objective: To compare pre-post ...
