摘要：
The efficient incentivization of physicians is a central question of health economics. In this paper, we answer this question using a randomized remuneration reform. Applying a difference-in-differences design to a unique, granular dataset, we find that physicians in the treatment group perform 3.2 percentage points (21%) more surgeries, costing the patients 3.9% more per day, at the expense of a 1.4 percentage point reduction in recovery rates. A closer examination unveils large heterogeneity in responses across physicians, patients, and types of utilization: (1) Physicians who are young, female, low-rank, and hold high education degrees are more responsive to the increased financial incentives. (2) Patients covered by more generous insurance contracts experience the sharpest spike in monetary costs, while those uninsured shoulder the cost of reduced health outcomes. (3) Medical procedures see faster growths than diagnostic tests, whereas prescriptions do not experience any significant change.

摘要：
Migration and pollution are two defining features of China’s impressive growth performance over the last 30 years. In this paper we study how pollution-induced migration affects productivity and welfare across Chinese cities. We document a robust pattern in which skilled workers emigrate more in response to pollution than the unskilled. Their greater sensitivity to air quality holds up in cross-sectional variation across cities, panel variation with individual fixed-effects, and when instrumenting for pollution using distant power-plants upwind of cities, or thermal inversions that trap pollution. Pollution therefore changes the spatial distribution of skilled and unskilled workers, which results in higher returns to skill in cities that the educated migrate away from. We quantify the loss in aggregate productivity due to this re-sorting by estimating a model of demand and supply of skilled and unskilled workers across Chinese cities. Counterfactual simulations from the estimated model show that reducing pollution would increase productivity through spatial re-sorting by approximately as much as the direct health benefits of clean air. Physical and institutional restrictions on mobility exacerbate welfare losses. People’s dislike of pollution explains a substantial portion of the wage gap between cities.

摘要：
I study the impact of financial friction on asset bubbles in an infinite horizon model where rational asset bubbles serve as a store of value and a collateral. Financial friction is characterized from two aspects, the interest rate spread and the loan-to-deposit ratio, which affect the existence of bubbles, its steady-state size and its dynamics in different ways. The impact of financial friction depends on the role of asset bubbles in the economy. When asset bubbles only serve as a store of value (collateral), smaller financial friction not only generates smaller (larger) bubbles in the steady state, but also dampens (amplifies) the fluctuations after the bubble collapses, improving (undermining) the stability of the economy. When both roles are involved, the impact of financial friction depends on the relative importance of the two roles. Bubble size tends to be the largest when financial friction is at an intermediate level. The impact of monetary policies on bubble size depends on the role of bubbles and the type of policy instruments.
