Dear American Society of Health Economists:
Welcome to the sixth biennial conference of the American Society of Health Economists. The Leonard Davis Institute of
Health Economics at the University of Pennsylvania is proud to host this premier forum for showcasing new ideas and
discussing cutting-edge research in health economics and health policy.
Our theme, New Frontiers in Health Policy and Health Care, reflects this exciting time for our field. As the dictionary
tells us, a frontier represents uncharted territory. Whether it refers to a remote piece of land or a new way of thinking,
a frontier challenges us to explore, to push beyond existing boundaries. Our exciting lineup of plenary speakers is
certain to challenge our thinking. Doug Elmendorf, Dean of the Harvard Kennedy School, and Director of the
Congressional Budget Office (CBO) during health care reform, will discuss how the work we do can influence health care
policy. Our other plenary is a panel on Bringing Economics and Behavioral Economics to Innovations in Provider
Payment Reform with Ezekiel Emanuel, Meredith Rosenthal, Kevin Volpp, Amol Navathe, and Dana Safran.
We hope that this conference will tap into your inner explorer, and open up new avenues for research and
collaboration. There is much to explore within our concurrent sessions with over 500 papers organized by themes
ranging from competition to cost-benefit, mental health to maternal health, and insurance to reimbursement. And even
the most hardy adventurers must take time to recharge and relax. Take advantage of the many green spaces on Penn’s
campus and in the city of Philadelphia. Soak in the history, art, and culture that surrounds you. Have fun!
We look forward to a stimulating and productive conference. When 1,000 health economists gather in one place,
anything is possible.
Sincerely,
Daniel Polsky

I would like to welcome each of you to the Sixth Biennial Conference of the American Society of Health
Economists (ASHEcon), hosted by the Leonard Davis Institute of Health Economics at the University of
Pennsylvania! The mission of ASHEcon continues to be to promote excellence in health economics research and
to provide a forum for emerging ideas and both empirical and theoretical results of health economics research.
Historically the biennial conferences are the primary activity through which we achieve this mission. However,
since the last meeting, most of you know we have launched our new journal, the American Journal of Health
Economics. The launch has been a resounding success as we’ve already received hundreds of your articles. Keep
them coming! While we’re on the subject, AJHE is a great place to consider sending your work after presenting it
here at the conference!
We have an even more packed schedule this year. Fifteen concurrent sessions and more than 500 papers will be
presented along with over 250 posters. We also have wonderful and insightful plenary sessions planned. We will
also be giving awards to recognize the achievements of our most distinguished members of the field (The Victor
Fuchs Lifetime Achievement Award) and our newest members of the field (the Student Paper Award), as well as
recognizing the contribution of the late great Will Manning with a new award named in his honor. And our
President, Mark Pauly, will give his presidential address during the noon hour on Monday.
A motivating principle of ASHEcon is “inclusion.” I believe this is accomplished at this conference. Participants
range from senior health economists to students, local to international, and come from universities,
government, research organizations, and industry. The planning committee has made significant efforts to
provide sessions and workshops on a broad range of topics. Everyone will find topics of interest—likely many.
Special thanks go to the Planning Committee chaired by President-Elect Jon Gruber, the Chair of the Local
Organizing Committee, Dan Polsky, President Mark Pauly, the scientific committee, the sponsors of this
conference listed in this program, the officers, board and volunteers of ASHEcon, and to the University of
Pennsylvania for graciously hosting our conference. Many people provided very valuable behind the scenes
assistance. We thank the outstanding and tireless work of LDI staff including Jennifer Magazzu, Lissy Madden,
Megan Pellegrino, and Nathan Westrup. And of course we thank ASHEcon Associate Director Charmaine Wright
for all her work coordinating the many tasks associated with planning and operating a conference of this size.
We hope our 6th Biennial Conference exceeds all of your expectations. Please be sure to fill out the online
evaluation to assist us in planning future conferences. And as always, thank you for your support of ASHEcon!
Warm Regards,
Tony Lo Sasso

Welcome to the 6th Biennial Conference of the American Society of Health Economists! As Dean of
the Wharton School of the University of Pennsylvania, it gives me great pleasure to have you here. It
is fitting that the largest assembly of health economists to date is being held at the country’s first
business school.
Our founder, Joseph Wharton, had a vision for a business school focusing on rigorous analysis,
actionable knowledge and responsible leadership. From this powerful foundation, Wharton has
become the foremost research-led business school in the world.
Wharton’s vision lives on in the Leonard Davis Institute of Health Economics, which represents one
of the earliest efforts to promote collaborative scholarship in health care through formal
partnerships among the clinical, management, and social sciences. We are immensely proud of the
50-year history of LDI and its role in producing some of the most prominent health economists in the
country.
America’s dynamic and demanding health care system requires your research and ingenuity, now
more than ever. Your hosts and organizers have planned a conference that reflects the extent of
these challenges and the intellectual resources you bring to meeting them.
I encourage you to fully engage in the program and all it has to offer – Joseph Wharton would expect
nothing less.
Best Regards,
Geoffrey Garrett, Dean
Reliance Professor of Management and Private Enterprise

ANDREW M., LOMAS, JAMES, AND RICE,
NIGEL. (2015) Healthcare Cost Regressions:
Going Beyond the Mean to Estimate the Full
Distribution. Health Economics, 24: 1192–1212.
Abstract: Understanding the data generating process behind
healthcare costs remains a key empirical issue. Although
much research to date has focused on the prediction of the
conditional mean cost, this can potentially miss important
features of the full distribution such as tail probabilities. We
conduct a quasi-Monte Carlo experiment using the English
National Health Service inpatient data to compare 14 approaches in modelling the distribution of healthcare costs:
nine of which are parametric and have commonly been used
to fit healthcare costs, and five others are designed specifically to construct a counterfactual distribution. Our results
indicate that no one method is clearly dominant and that
there is a trade-off between bias and precision of tail probability forecasts. We find that distributional methods demonstrate significant potential, particularly with larger sample
sizes where the variability of predictions is reduced. Parametric distributions such as log-normal, generalised gamma
and generalised beta of the second kind are found to estimate tail probabilities with high precision but with varying
bias depending upon the cost threshold being considered.

negotiations, and provider network formation. Prior to her
doctoral studies at the University of Pennsylvania’s Wharton
School, Elena graduated with an iBBA in business and economics from York University. This fall, Elena will join Northwestern University’s Kellogg School of Management as an
Assistant Professor.
JUAN PABLO ATAL is an applied microeconomist whose
research focuses on different aspects of health economics.
He is currently studying the workings of long term health insurance, the determinants of team productivity in the emergency department, and the effect of quality regulations on
the pharmaceutical market. Prior to earning his PhD in Economics from the University of California at Berkeley, Juan
Pablo graduated with a B.S. in Industrial Engineering and an
M.A. in Economics from Universidad de Chile, and worked
as a research assistant at the Inter-American Development

PRESIDENTIAL ADDRESS, MARK PAULY: SUBSIDIES, EXTERNALITIES, AND MORAL HAZARD: SHOULD LOWER INCOME
PEOPLE BE ALLOWED TO BUY INSURANCE WITH HIGH COST SHARING?
Presiding: Mark Pauly, PhD, Wharton School, University of Pennsylvania
Pauly, Mark
MARK V. PAULY, PH.D.
Mark V. Pauly currently holds the position of Bendheim Professor in the Department of Health Care Management
at the Wharton School of the University of Pennsylvania. He received the Ph.D. in Economics from the University of
Virginia. He is Professor of Health Care Management and Professor of Business Economics and Public Policy at the
Wharton School, Professor of Medical Ethics and Health Policy at the Perelman School of Medicine, and Professor
of Economics in the School of Arts and Sciences at the University of Pennsylvania. He is a former commissioner on
the Physician Payment Review Commission and an active member of the Institute of Medicine. One of the nation’s
leading health economists, he has made significant contributions to the fields of medical economics and health
insurance. His classic study on the economics of moral hazard was the first to point out how health insurance
coverage may affect patients’ use of medical services. Subsequent work, both theoretical and empirical, has explored the impact of
conventional insurance coverage on preventive care, on outpatient care, and on prescription drug use in managed care. His interests in
health policy deal with ways to reduce the number of uninsured through tax credits for public and private insurance, and appropriate
design for Medicare in a budget-constrained environment. He is currently studying the impacts of health care reform and the Affordable
Care Act. He has explored the influences that determine whether insurance coverage is available and, through several cost effectiveness
studies, the influence of medical care and health practices on health outcomes and cost. Mark is a co-editor-in-chief of the International
Journal of Health Economics and Management and an associate editor of the Journal of Risk and Uncertainty. He has served on Institute
of Medicine panels on public accountability for health insurers under Medicare and on improving the financing of vaccines. He currently
serves as President of the American Society of Health Economists (ASHEcon).

Where Life-changing Therapies Turn First™
Join the CTI HEOR Team
The CTI HEOR team of experts gather real world evidence
of a product’s value in clinical development and
commercial programs. Understanding the end
results of particular health care practices or of a
certain product may provide evidence about
benefits, risks, and results of treatments for key
stakeholders: clinicians, patients, payers and
hospitals. For healthcare managers and purchasers,
it can identify effective strategies to improve quality
and value of care. Industry companies can also gain
valuable information for product development, reimbursement,
and marketing strategies.

Welcome,
ASHEcon,
to where it all began
Nearly 50 years ago, in the wake of the passage
of Medicare and Medicaid, a new institute arose,
joining two important traditions at the University
of Pennsylvania: medicine and management.
Since then, the Leonard Davis Institute of Health
Economics has built bridges across all 12 Penn
schools and the Children’s Hospital of Philadelphia,
uniting more than 230 scholars with the singular
mission of improving our nation’s health care system
through rigorous research and data-driven policy.
