  • Malaria Prevalence, Indoor Residual Spraying, and Insecticide Treated Net Usage in Sub-Saharan Africa

    Gabriel Picone, Robyn Kibler et al.ARTICLEJournal of African Development2017

    This paper examines the extent to which bed net usage is responsive to changes in malaria prevalence and whether indoor residual spraying crowds out bed net usage. We show that malaria prevalence increases the probability of sleeping under an insecticide treated net but the implied elasticities are below one. For children under five, a one percentage point increase in malaria prevalence increases the probability of sleeping under a bed net by 0.4…

  • The impact of debt relief on under five mortality rate in Sub-Saharan Africa

    Open AccessJohn Bosco Oryema, Kwabena Gyimah‐Brempong et al.ARTICLEGlobal Public Health2017

    This paper examines the impact of the Highly Indebted Poor Countries (HIPC) Initiative on under five mortality rate (U5MR) in Sub-Saharan Africa. The HIPC Initiative involves debt forgiveness and the redirection of funds that were meant to service external debt towards the provision of social services and poverty reduction in eligible countries. The Initiative is akin to a natural experiment since some countries benefited while some did not, and …

  • Paludisme et anémie des enfants en Afrique subsaharienne

    Bénédicte Apouey, Bénédicte H Apouey et al.ARTICLERevue économique2017References: 1

    Cet article évalue l’effet de différentes politiques de lutte contre le paludisme, et en particulier de la politique dite de « mise à l’échelle » de la distribution de moustiquaires, sur la probabilité d’anémie des enfants en Afrique subsaharienne. Les données combinent des informations individuelles sur plus de 150 000 enfants et leur famille, et des informations régionales sur l’intensité du paludisme avant le lancement des campagnes, pour seiz…

RESEARCH DESIGN: A retrospective cohort study design based on Medicare 5% administrative claims data from 1992 to 2012 was used. Traditional fee-for-service Medicare beneficiaries, age 65 and older, diagnosed with T2D and living in the United States between 1992 and …

  • Does Higher Hospital Cost Imply Higher Quality of Care

    Gabriel Picone, Gabriel A Picone et al.ARTICLEThe Review of Economics and…2003

    This study investigates whether higher input use per stay in the hospital (treatment intensity) and longer length of stay improve outcomes of care. We allow for endogeneity of intensity and length of stay by estimating a quasi-maximum-likelihood discrete factor model, where the distribution of the unmeasured variable is modeled using a discrete distribution. Data on elderly persons come from several waves of the National Long-Term Care Survey mer…

  • Costs and outcomes of hip fracture and stroke, 1984 to 1994

    Frank A Sloan, Diana Hopkins Taylor et al.ARTICLEAmerican Journal of Public Health1999References: 16

    OBJECTIVES: This study quantified changes in Medicare payments and outcomes for hip fracture and stroke from 1984 to 1994. METHODS: We studied National Long Term Care Survey respondents who were hospitalized for hip fracture (n = 887) or stroke (n = 878) occurring between 1984 and 1994. Changes in Medicare payment and survival were primary outcomes. We also assessed changes in functional and cognitive status. RESULTS: Medicare payments within 6 m…
