Interviews with breast medical oncologists about discussing prognosis and using a prognostic tool

Our team developed a calculator to help oncologists better estimate prognosis in patients with metastatic breast cancer (MBC). Using this information, our team developed a prognostic calculator to predict risk of death within 30 days for patients with MBC. For this information to impact care, it will have to be used in clinical practice. In order to increase the likelihood of successful adoption of the calculator into clinical practice, we will study its implementation and evaluate its impact. In this study, we will seek the input of doctors, nurses, and advance practice providers who care for patients with MBC to better understand the factors that encourage and dissuade discussion of prognosis and use of such a prognostic tool.

The aim is to develop online food retail nudges to discourage fruit drink purchases and promote healthier substitutes. The ultimate goal is to decrease consumption of sugar-sweetened beverages in childhood as these are associated with increased risk of diet-related chronic diseases, such as obesity and type 2 diabetes.

Social Security Disabilitty Insurance and Health

All existing studies estimate the health effects of disability insurance based on reduced form models. This paper fills the gap in the literature by developing a model that allows the estimation of the Social Security Disability Insurance effects on health in a structural way. The structural model enables me to analyze counterfactual scenarios. In particular, I concentrate on the modification of the SSDI program that permits partial benefits for the partially disabled.
