Project Description
Summary:
View help for Summary
Using data from the Survey of Income and Program Participation
(SIPP), we study the health insurance and labor market implications
of the recent Affordable Care Act (ACA) provision that allows
dependents to remain on parental policies until age 26. Our comparison
of outcomes for young adults aged 19-25 with those who are
older and younger, before and after the law, shows a high take-up of
parental coverage, resulting in substantial reductions in uninsurance
and other forms of coverage. We also find preliminary evidence of
increased labor market flexibility in the form of reduced work hours.
