Optimal Long-Term Health Insurance Contracts: Characterization, Computation, and Welfare Effects

Soheil Ghili, Benjamin Handel, Igal Hendel, and Michael Whinston

Reclassification risk is a major concern in health insurance where contracts are typically one year in length but health shocks often persist for much longer. While most health systems with private insurers pair short-run contracts with substantial pricing regulations to reduce reclassification risk, long-term contracts with one-sided insurer commitment have significant potential to reduce reclassification risk without the negative side effects of price regulation, such as adverse selection.

Diversity in Schools: Immigrants and the Educational Performance of U.S.-Born Students

David Figlio, Paola Giuliano, Riccardo Marchingiglio, Umut Ozek, and Paola Sapienza

We study the effect of exposure to immigrants on the educational outcomes of U.S.-born students, using a unique dataset combining population-level birth and school records from Florida. This research question is complicated by substantial school selection of U.S.-born students, especially among White and comparatively affluent students, in response to the presence of immigrant students in the school.

The 2000s Housing Cycle With 2020 Hindsight: A Neo-Kindlebergerian View

Gabriel Chodorow-Reich, Adam M. Guren, and Timothy J. McQuade

With “2020 hindsight,” the 2000s housing cycle is not a boom-bust but a boom-bust- rebound. Using a spatial equilibrium regression in which house prices are determined by income, amenities, urbanization, and supply, we show that long-run city-level fundamentals predict not only 1997-2019 price and rent growth but also the amplitude of the boom-bust-rebound.

"Free markets failed for 700 years. When poor farmers couldn't pay, a simple quota beat auctions. Sometimes the invisible hand needs handcuffs."

Patent term boosts long run innovation, but policy anticipation creates surprising, medium term dynamics: innovation rises before expected cuts and remains high due to spillovers.
