  • The Impact of the Affordable Care Act Young Adult Provision on Childbearing: Evidence From Tax Data

    Open AccessBradley Heim, Bradley T Heim et al.ARTICLEDemography2018References: 10

    We use panel U.S. tax data spanning 2008–2013 to study the impact of the Affordable Care Act (ACA) young adult provision on an important demographic outcome: childbearing. The impact is theoretically ambiguous: gaining insurance may increase access to contraceptive services while also reducing the out-of-pocket costs of childbirth. Because employer-reported U.S. Wage and Tax Statements (W-2 forms) record access to employer-provided benefits, we c…

  • Did the Affordable Care Act Young Adult Provision Affect Labor Market Outcomes? Analysis Using Tax Data

    Open AccessBradley Heim, Bradley T Heim et al.ARTICLEIndustrial and Labor Relations…2018References: 47

    Using a data set of US tax records spanning 2008 to 2013, the authors study the impact of the Affordable Care Act (ACA) young adult dependent coverage requirement on labor market-related outcomes, including measures of employment status, job characteristics, and postsecondary education. They find that the ACA provision did not result in substantial changes in labor market outcomes. Results show that employment and self-employment are not statisti…

  • Does Health Reform Lead to an Increase in Early Retirement? Evidence from Massachusetts

    Open AccessBradley T Heim, Lee-Kai Lin et al.ARTICLEIndustrial and Labor Relations…2017References: 31

    This article estimates the impact of the 2006 Massachusetts health reform on the decision of individuals to retire early. Using data from the American Community Survey that spans 2004 through 2012, the authors estimate difference-in-differences models for retirement using individuals from other northeastern states as the control group. The estimates suggest that the reform led women to increase early retirement from full-time work by 1.1 percenta…

  • Single Women's Labor Supply Elasticities: Trends and Policy Implications

    Open AccessKelly Bishop, Bradley Heim et al.ARTICLEIndustrial and Labor Relations…2009Cited by: 2References: 19

    This paper uses CPS data to examine changes in single women's labor supply elasticities in recent decades. Specifically, the authors investigate trends in how single women's hours of work and labor force participation rates responded to both wages and income over the years 1979-2003. Results from the base specification suggest that over the observation period, hours wage elasticities decreased by 82%, participation wage elasticities by 36%, and p…

  • The effect of recent tax changes on taxable income: Evidence from a new panel of tax returns

    Open AccessBradley T HeimARTICLEJournal of Policy Analysis and…2008Cited by: 1References: 1

    This paper estimates the elasticity of taxable income to the net‐of‐tax share using a panel of tax returns that follows a random sample of taxpayers from 1999 to 2005, spanning the EGTRRA 2001 and JGTRRA 2003 tax changes. Results suggest that the elasticity of taxable income to the current year's net‐of‐tax share lies between 0.3 and 0.4 overall, and that the elasticity of a broader measure of income falls between 0.1 and 0.2 overall, with substa…
