中文摘要
《平价医疗法案》（ACA）是自 Medicare 引入以来美国医疗保险体系最重要的改革之一。由于就业是美国劳动年龄人口获得医疗保险的主要来源，这项范围广泛的医疗保险改革也对劳动力市场和宏观经济产生了重要影响。本文回顾了宏观和劳动经济学文献中使用的原型模型——这些模型经过扩展以纳入健康和医疗保险——用于研究 ACA 的短期和长期影响。我们还指出了未来研究的开放领域。
Abstract
The Affordable Care Act (ACA) is one of the most important reforms of the US health insurance system since the introduction of Medicare. Because employment is a main source of health insurance for the working-age population in the USA, this sweeping health insurance reform has also had important implications for the labor market and the macro economy. In this article, we review the prototype models that are used in the macro and labor literature, extended to integrate health and health insurance, to study the short- and long-run consequences of the ACA. We also suggest open areas for future research.
