Health Insurance and Mortality in US Adults: Another Myth in the Making?

Professor David Dranove

I am breaking my recent vow to post just one blog a week because I have finished reading a pre-publication draft of “Health Insurance and Mortality in US Adults” by five Harvard MDs (Amer. J of Pub Health, December 2009) and that paper has really got my dander up. Some of the authors of this paper also gave us the “half of all bankruptcies are due to health spending” paper. I have a paper and blog forthcoming on the latter claim but the journal has placed a pre-publication embargo on it.
