Early career health shocks and long-run labour market outcomes
The economic literature on health shocks and labour market outcomes largely focuses on acute health shocks at older ages, leaving limited evidence on long-term labour-market consequences. By examining the consequences of incident hospital-diagnosed back disorders among early-career workers, this study addresses that gap in the literature. We link population-wide Danish administrative registers (1996-2017) to follow a cohort of 157,692 individuals…
Holy cows and spilled milk: The impact of religious missions on firm-level productivity
Did religious missions influence firm-level productivity? This study examines the impact of the Inner Mission (IM) movement on productivity in early twentieth-century Denmark, a predominantly Protestant and homogeneous society undergoing rapid industrialization. Using data on 964 creameries and employing an instrumental variables approach, we provide evidence that IM intensity reduced productivity in butter production, measured by the Milk-to-But…
Effects of Point-Of-Care Testing in General Practice for Type 2 Diabetes Patients on Ambulatory Visits and Hospitalizations
Point-of-care testing (POCT) of HbA1c means instant test results and more coherent counseling that is expected to improve diabetes management and affect ambulatory visits and hospitalizations. From late 2008, POCT has been implemented and adopted by a segment of the general practices in the capital region of Denmark. The aim of this study is to assess whether the introduction of POCT of HbA1c in general practice (GP) has affected patient outcomes…
Variation in Point-of-Care Testing of HbA1c in Diabetes Care in General Practice
Background: Point-of-care testing (POCT) of HbA1c may result in improved diabetic control, better patient outcomes, and enhanced clinical efficiency with fewer patient visits and subsequent reductions in costs. In 2008, the Danish regulators created a framework agreement regarding a new fee-for-service fee for the remuneration of POCT of HbA1c in general practice. According to secondary research, only the Capital Region of Denmark has allowed GPs…
