Provider Triage Study

We are studying the triage decision making process of healthcare providers. Our goal is to understand what factors influence the triage decision making process. With the growing burden of emergency department overcrowding and strained hospital capacity, the need to keep patients out of the emergency department is great, when safely able to do so. A better understanding of how and why patients are triaged can help direct work to safely care for patients in the outpatient setting.

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.
