題目: Linguistic Distance and Economic Development: Costs of Accessing
Domestic and International Centers

概要: We investigate the impacts of access to domestic and international
communication on the economic development of a nation by constructing
two indexes of linguistic distance, domestic and international,
capturing language acquisition costs which would be higher in the case
of acquiring linguistically distant languages. While the domestic
linguistic distance index captures the constraint of nationwide
communication among speakers of different mother tongues, the
international linguistic distance index captures the constraints of
the global communication via English. The domestic linguistic distance
has a negative impact on the economic development of poor countries,
while only rich countries enjoy a positive impact on the national
income if the international linguistic distance is smaller.
Particularly, we show that the capability to use English as the first
language is highly advantageous for economic development.

題目: How Do Providers Respond to Health Insurance Expansion? Evidence
from Pediatric Clinics in Japan

概要: Although recent studies argue that the large scale expansion of
public health insurance, such as introduction of the Affordable Care
Act, results in increasing adoption of costly medical technologies,
our knowledge on the supply-side responses to health insurance
expansion is still limited. Using the rapid and dramatic expansion of
the subsidization program for children’s health care utilization in
Japan, known as Medical Subsidy on Children and Infants (MSCI), I
investigate how pediatricians respond to this policy change. Data of
all pediatric clinics from 1999 to 2011 (N=63,072) are matched with
municipality-level eligibility criteria of the MSCI, which are
obtained from author’s original survey (Takaku 2016, Social Science &
Medicine). Double differences technique is used to estimate the
effects of the MSCI expansion. The results show the MSCI expansion
increases number of patients in pediatric clinics greatly. In
addition, the MSCI expansion increases the number of pediatric clinics
in a municipality, suggesting health insurance expansion induces
greater market entry. However, as a results of increased profitability
due to the MSCI expansion, I find pediatric clinics generally reduce
their labor supply and increase no-consultation days.
