Centro de Documentacion de Fundación MAPFRE - Does Public Health Insurance Expansion Influence Medical Liability Insurance Prices? The Case of the ACA's Optional Medicaid Expansion

Notas: Sumario: Medical liability insurance covers physicians' liability, and its price could affect physicians' practice. In this article, we use a unique county-level dataset to study how medical liability insurance prices of three specialties, internal medicine, general surgery, and obstetricsgynecology (OB-GYN), changed after the Affordable Care Act (ACA) elective Medicaid expansion provision. The Medicaid expansion has largely increased the demand for health care services and potentially exposed physicians to higher medical liability risks. With higher expected losses, insurers could react by increasing medical malpractice insurance prices.Registros relacionados: En: North American actuarial journal. - Schaumburg : Society of Actuaries, 1997- = ISSN 1092-0277. - 06/09/2023 Tomo 27 Número 3 - 2023 , 23 p.Materia / lugar / evento: Mercado de seguros Cálculo actuarial Métodos de análisis Empresas de seguros Medicaid Sanidad Identificación de riesgos Otros autores: F.
