Long-Term and Spillover Effects of Health Shocks on Employment and Income
利用荷兰医院和税收登记数据，研究突发疾病（急性住院）对个人就业和收入的长期影响，发现两年后就业率下降7个百分点、收入损失5%，且无后续恢复，家庭收入损失比患者本人多50%。
We use matching combined with difference-in-differences to identify the causal effects of sudden illness, represented by acute hospitalizations, on employment and income up to six years after the health shock using linked Dutch hospital and tax register data. An acute hospital admission lowers the employment probability by seven percentage points and results in a five percent loss of personal income two years after the shock. There is no subsequent recovery in either employment or income. There are large spillover effects: household income falls by 50 percent more than the income of the disabled person.
