摘要
美国目前有 35 个州制定了需求证明 (CON) 法,要求医疗服务提供者在合法开业或扩张之前向州委员会证明其 "经济必要性"。虽然已有数十篇文章评估了 CON 对医院和消费者的影响,但还没有一篇公开发表的文章评估过它对医疗工作者的影响。我们认为,CON 对工资和就业的影响在理论上是模糊的。我们利用 1979-2019 年的当前人口调查数据对 CON 法律进行了实证分析。我们发现,CON 对医护人员的就业和工资没有明显影响。
Thirty‐five U.S. states currently have Certificate‐of‐Need (CON) laws, which require health care providers to prove their “economic necessity” to a state board before they can legally open or expand. While dozens of articles have evaluated the effect of CON on hospitals and consumers, no published article has evaluated its effect on health care workers. We argue that the sign of the effect of CON on both the wages and employment is theoretically ambiguous. We conduct an empirical analysis of CON laws using 1979–2019 data from the Current Population Survey. We find that CON does not significantly affect the employment or wages of health care workers.
