Title: Profit Motives in Healthcare: Evidence from Hospitals
Abstract: Differences between nonprofit and for-profit hospitals have been of longstanding debate within the health economics literature. Past work on this subject has been largely descriptive, with few papers providing causal evidence. In this project, I will apply an econometric approach that has (in other works) successfully examined differences between hospitals across other characteristics to offer updated identification for this question.
