The Effect Of Employment Frictions On Crime: Theory And Estimation, Bryan Engelhardt Apr 2008

The Effect Of Employment Frictions On Crime: Theory And Estimation, Bryan Engelhardt

Economics Department Working Papers

I investigate how long it takes for released inmates to find a job, and when they find a job, how their incarceration rate changes. An on-the-job search model with crime is used to model criminal behavior, derive the estimation method and analyze several policies including a job placement program. The results show the unemployed are incarcerated twice as fast as the employed and take on average four months to find a job. Combining these results, it is demonstrated that reducing the average unemployment spell of criminals by two months reduces crime and recidivism by more than five percent.

Costs And Benefits Of Elderly Prescription Drug Coverage: Evidence From Veterans’ Health Care, Melissa Boyle Apr 2008

Costs And Benefits Of Elderly Prescription Drug Coverage: Evidence From Veterans’ Health Care, Melissa Boyle

Economics Department Working Papers

This study tests the impact of a public prescription benefit on Medicare-eligible veterans, utilizing a mid-1990s benefit change in the VA health care system. Using data from the Medicare Current Beneficiary Survey, I compare prescription spending and utilization, as well as use of other health services and health outcomes for veterans and non-veterans before and after the VA insurance change. Results show that receipt of a publicly-provided prescription benefit leads to an increase in spending on prescriptions, and simultaneously, a decrease in spending on other medical services. On average, every $1 increase in drug spending is associated with a $6.50 …
