Contents:
This course uses microeconomic methods to analyze how decisions are taken by actors in the health care system. Among the topics covered are:
- market failures in the health care
- the demand for health insurance
- risk selection by health insurers
- physician behavior
- paying providers
- the market for pharmaceuticals
We will examine a number of important policy issues, e.g., the regulation of health insurance markets and the design of payment schemes.
The course consists of a lecture and an exercise session.
