The AEA’s founding purpose of “the encouragement of economic research” requires intellectual and professional integrity. Integrity demands honesty, care, and transparency in conducting and presenting research; disinterested assessment of ideas; acknowledgement of limits of expertise; and disclosure of real and perceived conflicts of interest. The AEA encourages the “perfect freedom of economic discussion.” This goal requires an environment where all can freely participate and where each idea is considered on its own merits. Economists have a professional obligation to conduct civil and respectful discourse in all forums, including those that allow confidential or anonymous participation. The AEA seeks to create a professional environment with equal opportunity and fair treatment for all economists, regardless of age, sex, gender identity and expression, race, ethnicity, national origin, religion, sexual orientation, disability, health condition, marital status, parental status, genetic information, political affiliation, professional status, or personal connections. Economists have both an individual responsibility for their own conduct, and a collective responsibility to promote professional conduct. These responsibilities include developing institutional arrangements and a professional environment that promote free expression concerning economics. These responsibilities also include supporting participation and advancement in the economics profession by individuals from all backgrounds, including particularly those that have been historically underrepresented. The AEA strives to promote these principles through its activities. iii AEA Policy on Harassment and Discrimination The AEA does not tolerate harassment or discrimination in any of its activities. Unacceptable behavior includes, but is not limited to: • Solicitation of emotional or physical intimacy despite expressions or indications that it is unwelcome • Solicitation of emotional or physical intimacy accompanied by real or implied threat of personal or professional harm • Intentionally intimidating, threatening, harassing, or abusive actions or remarks (both spoken and in other media) • Prejudicial actions or comments that undermine the principles of equal opportunity, fair treatment, or free academic exchange • Deliberate intimidation, stalking, or following • Harassing photography or recording • Sustained or aggressive disruption of talks or other activities that undermine free academic exchange • Physical assault (including unwelcome touching or groping) • Real or implied threat of physical harm Individuals violating this policy may be subject to disciplinary action. The AEA reserves the right to take such actions including, but not limited to, removing an individual from an AEA activity without warning, prohibiting an individual from participating in any future AEA activities, terminating an individual’s AEA membership, and notifying an individual’s employer. Retaliation against any person who files a complaint, or assists in the investigation of such a complaint, is also a violation of this policy and may likewise be subject to disciplinary action. The AEA views it as the responsibility of each individual member to be proactive in helping to mitigate or avoid harm when the member witnesses any unacceptable behavior. iv Contents General Information............................... vi ASSA Hotels .....................................x Listing of Advertisers and Exhibitors ............... xxvi ASSA Executive Officers........................ xxviii Summary of Sessions by Organization ..............xxxii Daily Program of Events ............................1 AEA Poster Session ...............................29 Program of Sessions Thursday, January 2 .........................57 Friday, January 3 ...........................58 Saturday, January 4 ........................172 Sunday, January 5 .........................308 Subject Area Index...............................402 Index of Participants .............................406 v General Information PROGRAM SCHEDULES A listing of sessions where papers will be presented and another covering activities such as business meetings and receptions are provided in this program.

  • National Letter in Support of Federal All-Payer Claims Database
    National Letter in Support of Federal All-Payer Claims Database As health scholars, leaders of health organizations, and funders of health research, we are writing in support of establishing a federal all-payer claims database (APCD). APCDs regularly collect data on health insurance claims from all of the payers in a given area (typically a state). Because they include demographic and diagnostic data on patients as well as any treatment or drug paid for by insurance (private or public), APCDs can be immensely valuable for research. APCDs have been used by health scholars to study numerous issues about quality and cost, including the extent of long-term opioid use after surgery, the ability of Medicaid patients to access physicians, the amount of wasted medical spending ending on low-value care, the performance of new models to reduce health spending (such as patient-centered medical home programs), the rate of complications after routine surgeries, and the characteristics of the highest-cost Medicaid patients. In 2016, however, the Supreme Court rendered it all but impossible for states to establish comprehensive APCDs, on the grounds that the Employee Retirement Income Security Act (ERISA) preempted states from requiring reporting by self-insured health plans. As noted in the Journal of the American Medical Association, this Supreme Court decision has “far-reaching implications for the ability of states to access comprehensive health information to inform policy making.” In May 2019, the Senate Health, Education, Labor and Pensions Committee released a draft of the Lower Health Care Costs Act. Among other things, that Act would amend ERISA to create a federal APCD whose data would be available to “researchers and policymakers.” While we are not all able to take a position on specific federal legislation, we can all agree that a national APCD would be an enormous leap forward for the ability of health researchers to study the cost and quality of medical care across the U.S.
