What is Amy Finkelstein's central idea?
My central focus is on understanding the causal effects of health insurance and related policies. This involves rigorously measuring how changes in access to care, driven by insurance, impact individual behavior, healthcare spending, and health status. A core part of this is disentangling correlation from causation, which requires careful empirical strategies. I aim to provide clear, data-driven evidence to inform effective health policy decisions.
