Book excerpt: This dissertation describes results of empirical studies addressing important issues in the field of health economics, one of the fastest-growing fields within economics. The investigated problems include two major topic areas: aggregate health determinant effects on health and individual health determinants effects on health. For the aggregate study, this dissertation extends current research by including detailed health expenditure data from the Centers for Medicare & Medicaid Services (CMS) at the Department of Health and Human Services; using instrumental variables techniques to reduce the likelihood of cross correlation between expenditure and health outcome variables; and defining a set of state-level factor variables that provide an incisive look into differing state characteristics. The empirical results indicate a consistent negative impact of aggregate health expenditure on all-cause mortality. Income elasticity results indicate that health is not a luxury good The focus of the individual study involves relationships between geography and health, occupation and health, and the interaction effects between geography and occupation on health. This study uses data defined within the survey of choice, the National Longitudinal Mortality Study (NLMS), for location of birth and standard occupations; and uses occupation variables and state-level characteristic variables, which were both defined through factor analyses. In particular, the race data show consistently worse health for black men and women relative to whites. Being female is always more healthy than being male. Living in rural areas (and suburban areas) is better for health than living in urban areas. Health improves as the amount of education and income rise. In addition, this study considers the impact of occupation category groupings on health and uses the results of an occupation factor analysis to define job characteristics. Traits related to "job IQ," for example, creativity and cognitive ability, show consistent, significant, and positive impacts on health even with a variety of confounding variables, suggesting that job IQ is fundamental to explaining the impact of occupations on health.

It focuses both on determinants of health investments and external factors impacting directly the health status. Chapter 2 focuses on determinants of the demand for prevention among elderly. During last years, the Retirement Insurance has increased prevention supply, in particular for housing adaptation but the take-up for the program still remains very low. We implement a large field experiment with several incentives in order to determine the nature of demand-side barriers for prevention. We provide evidence that providing information is the main fruitful policy avenue. Chapter 3 evaluates the impact of an information campaign on health demand in Mali. The campaign did not take place in all Malian health districts at the same time and was therefore realized in three waves. We exploit these temporal exogenous variations in order to evaluate the impact of the campaign on health demand. We find that providing information has a strong impact on assisted childbirth and prenatal care rates. Chapter 4 points out that the working environment could lead to large consequences on the health status, in particular on the psychological dimension. We overcome methodological problems linked to endogeneity issues by exploiting the exogenous change of the European legislation that aimed at increasing competition in the energy market. We use unique panel data on workers and provide evidence that organizational changes caused a deterioration of the workers' health outcomes.
