(2013). Fill in the blank identifying the method used in this paper given the description in the paragraph (I've given you a hint on the key points by italicizing a few phrases): "Adults randomly selected in the lottery were given the option to apply for Medicaid, but not all persons selected by the lottery enrolled in Medicaid (either because they did not apply or because they were deemed ineligible). Lottery selection increased the probability of Medicaid coverage during our study period by 24.1 percentage points (95% confidence interval [CI], 22.3 to 25.9; P<0.001). The subgroup of lottery winners who ultimately enrolled in Medicaid was not comparable to the overall group of persons who did not win the lottery. We, therefore, used a standard______ _approach... to estimate the causal effect of enrollment in Medicaid. Intuitively, since the lottery increased the chance…arrow_forward
- The UN Committee on Economic, Social, and Cultural Rights (CESCR) is charged with interpreting the International Covenant on Economic, Social, and Cultural Rights (ICESR). In 2000 the Committee released General Comment 14, “The Right to the Highest Attainable Standard of Health”. The General Comment is important for advancing our understanding of a right to health under international law because it: (choose one) A) Sets out what has become known as the “3AQ model” addressing the conditions for health on the basis of Availability, Accessibility, Acceptability, and Quality. B) Creates new, specific obligations with respect to the delivery health care services that are binding on all countries of the world C) Makes it clear that the absence of a right to health in the Canadian Charter or Rights and Freedoms means that Canada is in clear violation of its obligations under the ICESR.

At what age is the rate of disease development the highest? Source: Adapted from P. Coleman et al., “Endemic Stability―A Veterinary Idea Applied to Public Health," The Lancet 357 (2001): 1284–86. 19. If C(x) is the cost of producing x units of a commodity, then the average cost per unit is c(x) = C(x)/x. The marginal cost is the rate of change of the cost with respect to the number of items produced, that is, the derivative C'(x). (a) Show that if the average cost is a minimum, then the marginal cost equals the average cost. (b) If C(x) = 16,000 + 200x + 4x³/2, in dollars, find (i) the cost, average cost, and marginal cost at a produc- tion level of 1000 units; (ii) the production level that will minimize the average cost; and (iii) the minimum average cost. 20. If R(x) is the revenue that a company receives when it sells x units of a product, then the marginal revenue function is the derivative R'(x). The profit function isarrow_forward

- "Self-insurance" behaviors are actions one takes that lower the probability of a negative health outcome. (True/False) Economicsarrow_forwardDemand for medical services is price inelastic (Absolute value of price elasticity of demand is less than 1 and greater than zero). Medical services are different from most other goods and services in that the person who determines the demand (the patient) is not the person who makes the payment (payment is made by the insurance company). How does this affect the price elasticity of demand for medical services (increase it or decrease it)? You may assume that this question only refers to people who have health insurance. Ignore co-payments and deductibles and any other out-of-pocket expenses. Please give an explanation.arrow_forward
