12/27/2004: Abstract: Tax Policy for Health Insurance (National Bureau of Economic Research [NBER])

Excerpt: Despite a $140 billion existing tax break for employer-provided health insurance, tax policy remains the tool of choice for many policy-makers in addressing the problem of the uninsured. In this paper, I use a microsimulation model to estimate the impact of various tax interventions to cover the uninsured, relative to an expansion of public insurance designed to accomplish the same goals.
