  • Building the Future Dennis Keller and His Landmark $20 Million Gift to the School
    FALL/WINTER 2014 America’s Hidden Hunger Crisis Behavioral Insights and Parenting Lab Measuring Chicago’s Creative Economy THE UNIVERSITY OF CHICAGO HARRIS SCHOOL OF PUBLIC POLICY BUILDING THE FUTURE DENNIS KELLER AND HIS LANDMARK $20 MILLION GIFT TO THE SCHOOL PLUS: DAVID AXELROD ON THE 2015 U.K. ELECTIONS LETTER FROM THE PRESIDENT AND PROVOST The Harris School of Public Policy embodies many of the values that make the University of Chicago distinct. The school’s interdisciplinary and data-driven approach to policy analysis reflects the University’s culture of rigorous inquiry, and faculty and student engagement with the City of Chicago and other urban centers demonstrates the impact of research on societal challenges in education, crime, energy and other fields. These efforts draw scholars and practitioners to campus to exchange ideas and learn. Because the school stands at the intersection of so many import- ant ideas, we recognized that its next dean would need to build on these existing strengths and think creatively about public policy scholarship and education. We wanted a leader who could work with scholars across the University and engage with business, political and civic leaders in Chicago and beyond to ensure that the school influences major policy debates. Robert J. Zimmer Eric D. Isaacs We found such a person in Daniel Diermeier, who started his tenure as dean on September 1. Dean Diermeier, previously the IBM Professor of Regulation and Competitive Practice at Northwestern University’s Kellogg School of Management, is an internationally recognized scholar of political institutions, formal political theory and the interaction of business and politics.

Glaeser, editor Volume Publisher: The University of Chicago Press Volume ISBN: 0-226-29789-6 Volume URL: http://www.nber.org/books/glae08-1 Conference Dates: November 30-December 1, 2007 Publication Date: February 2010 Chapter Title: Understanding Agglomerations in Health Care Chapter Author: Katherine Baicker, Amitabh Chandra Chapter URL: http://www.nber.org/chapters/c7986 Chapter pages in book: (211 - 236) 7 Understanding Agglomerations in Health Care Katherine Baicker and Amitabh Chandra 7.1 Introduction Understanding the drivers of productivity differences across areas is cru- cial to designing effective public policies to promote growth and efficient use of resources. Knowledge spillovers and economies of scale may be key causes of differences in productivity across space. The agglomeration econo- mies literature explores the positive link between productivity and city size or density: cities, by virtue of their density, may facilitate the generation, transmission, and acquisition of new ideas. This is the Marshallian notion of “knowledge spillovers,” where one’s neighbors infl uence one’s adoption of new technologies so that cities should be more productive places. Most of this research, however, focuses on aggregate productivity measures, such as average income. These measures can be both crude and affected by common local factors, such as price levels, which makes it difficult to discern from them the mechanisms that drive productivity differences. In this chapter, we explore the drivers of differences in medical sector pro- ductivity to understand agglomeration economies better—particularly, the role that information spillovers play in making some places more productive.

  • The Impact of Medicaid Expansion on Voter Participation: Evidence from the Oregon Health Insurance Experiment
    WORKING PAPER · NO. 2018-76 The Impact of Medicaid Expansion on Voter Participation: Evidence from the Oregon Health Insurance Experiment Katherine Baicker and Amy Finkelstein NOVEMBER 2018 1126 E. 59th St, Chicago, IL 60637 Main: 773.702.5599 bfi.uchicago.edu THE IMPACT OF MEDICAID EXPANSION ON VOTER PARTICIPATION: EVIDENCE FROM THE OREGON HEALTH INSURANCE EXPERIMENT* November 2018 Katherine Baicker, University of Chicago, NBER, and J-PAL North America Amy Finkelstein, MIT, NBER and J-PAL North America Abstract: In 2008, a group of uninsured low-income adults in Oregon was selected by lottery for the chance to apply for Medicaid. Using this randomized design and state administrative data on voter behavior, we analyze how a Medicaid expansion affected voter turnout and registration. We find that Medicaid increased voter turnout in the November 2008 Presidential election by about 7 percent overall, with the effects concentrated in men (18 percent increase) and in residents of democratic counties (10 percent increase); there is suggestive evidence that the increase in voting reflected new voter registrations, rather than increased turnout among pre- existing registrants. There is no evidence of an increase in voter turnout in subsequent elections, up to and including the November 2010 midterm election. * We are grateful to Andrea Campbell, Josh Gottlieb, Neale Mahoney, Sarah Taubman, and Ben Olken for helpful comments and suggestions, and to Innessa Colaiacovo, Daniel Prinz, Sam Wang, and especially Sihang Cai for excellent research assistance. We thank Brittany Kenison in Oregon Secretary of State Election Division for assistance in using voting records. We are grateful to funding for the broader Oregon Health Insurance Experiment from the Assistant Secretary for Planning and Evaluation in the Department of Health and Human Services, the California Health Care Foundation, the John D.
