Physician agency and patient survival [PDF]

Journal of Economic Behavior & Organization, 2017
We investigate the role of physician agency in determining health care supply and patient outcomes. We show that an increase in health care supply due to a change in private physician incentives has a theoretically ambiguous impact on patient welfare. The increase can reflect either induced demand for ineffective care or a reduction in prior rationing ...

Survival in hemodialysis patients [PDF]

Journal of the American Society of Nephrology, 1993
Depression has been identified at the most prevalent psychologic problem in patients with ESRD treated with hemodialysis (HD). Depression has been associated with mortality in HD patients; however, the similarity of the symptoms of depressive disorders to those of uremia and the difficulties in measuring depression and dissociating psychologic from ...

The survival of patients with not-for-resuscitation orders [PDF]

QJM: An International Journal of Medicine, 2013
Studies have shown higher in-hospital mortality rates in patients with not-for-resuscitation (NFR) decisions. Long-term survival of these patients after their discharge from acute care is largely unknown as is communication of such decisions to primary care givers through letters or discharge summaries.To evaluate the in-hospital mortality and post ...
