ABSTRACT This paper models the wage—contract negotiation procedure between a union
and a firm as a sequential bargaining process in which the union also decides, in each
period, whether or not to strike for the duration of that period. We show that there exist ...

Health plans paid by capitation have an incentive to distort the quality of services they offer
to attract profitable and to deter unprofitable enrollees. We characterize plans' rationing as a
“shadow price” on access to various areas of care and show how the profit maximizing ...

Abstract When rival firms issue long-term debt, their product market behavior is driven by
strategic considerations that would not be present if the firms had no debt or if their debt was
short term. It is shown that with limited liability, a firm′ s behavior in product market ...

Abstract We consider a three-stage model of research and development (R & D) to capture

compete in the product market. In the second stage, the firms simultaneously choose ...

It is well known that adverse selection causes distortions in contracts in markets with
asymmetric information. Taxing inefficient contracts and subsidizing the efficient ones can
improve market outcomes (Bruce C. Greenwald and Joseph E. Stiglitz, 1986), although ...

We view a debate as a mechanism by which an uninformed decision maker (the listener)

Risk adjustment refers to the practice of paying health plans a premium per person (or per
family) based on a formula using risk adjusters, such as age or gender, and weights on
those adjusters. One role of risk adjustment is to make sure plans have an incentive to ...

Implementation theory has come a long way since the pioneering contributions of Hurwicz

question addressed in this literature is that of which social choice functions are ...

use formal risk adjustment. The theme running through these hypotheses is simple: private
employers don't need formal adjustment because they have better tools for dealing with ...

Quality reports about health plans and providers are becoming more prevalent in health

Global ratings, such as those based on consumer satisfaction, are a commonly used form of
