Roadmap • • Introduction Medicaid Financing Rules Theoretical Model Data Econometrics Results Policy Experiments
Elderly Population Growth • Increased by 28% between 1980 and 1993 • Will reach 20% of population by 2025
Long Term Care Arrangements • Children are less likely to care for elderly parents • Elderly parents are more likely to remain independent, move to a nursing home, or receive formal care • Data from 84 NLTCS indicate that siblings often share LTC responsibilities.

Medicaid Rules • Eligibility is linked to actual or potential receipt of cash assistance under SSI or former AFDC. Law generally requires states to cover these individuals. But states have some flexibility in determining their programs.
Coverage depends upon : • Categorically needy (12 states in 1993) • Elderly who are not poor by SSI or SSP standards but need assistance with medical expenses (37 states in 1993) • Individuals in medical care institutions or needing home care (over 40 states in 1993)
Theoretical Model • I adult children and one or two elderly parents • Assume that married couples act as a single player; therefore, there are I+1 players indexed by i=0, 1, 2, . . , I • When indexing married spouses, we use m (maternal) and p (paternal) for parents and c (child) and s (spouse) for children
Theoretical Model • Each player makes decisions about consumption Xi, contributions to paid help for the parent Hi, leisure Lik, time spent caring for each parent tipk and tifk, and market work time k=c, s for children and their spouses • Market work time is zero for both parents. For the children and their spouses, market work time is 1 -Lik-Σjtijk.
• The coefficients β 1 i, β 2 i, β 3 ik, and β 4 jik are deterministic functions of observed child characteristics • The errors εXi, εLik, and εtijk are functions of unobserved child characteristics • It is assumed that β 1 i≥ 0, β 2 i≥ 0, β 3 ik≥ 0, εXi ≥ 0, and εLik ≥ 0,
Budget Constraint • For each child,
Budget Constraint • We estimate Yi and s using CPS data and allow it to vary across states • For the parent, the budget constraint is Y 0+G 0≥p. X 0 X 0+q. H 0 if she is not eligible for Medicaid reimbursement of home health care expenses. If she is eligible, the budget constraint is equal to Ψ-max(q. H 0 -q. H) ≥ p. X 0 X 0 • 1 ≥L 0 k+t 0 jk
Consumption • For each child and parent, we can solve for Xi using the budget constraint to get
Formal Care Payments • For each player other than the parent, the set of FOCs for Hi is
Formal Care Payments • If ∂Ui/ ∂Hi<0, then FOC implies
Formal Care Payments • If ∂Ui/ ∂Hi=0, then FOC implies
Informal Care Hours • The FOCs for tijk depend on Hi. If Hi>0,
Informal Care Hours • If Hi=0,

Data • Asset and Health Dynamics Among the Oldest Old (AHEAD) data set. • AHEAD is a nationally representative longitudinal data set designed to facilitate study of Americans 70 or older. • Emphasis on the joint dynamics of health, family characteristics, income, and wealth • Response rates are over 80%. • Blacks, Hispanics, and Florida residents are oversampled.
Selection criteria • We use 2, 876 households out of approximately 6, 000 • We use the first wave of data collected in 1993 • 1, 822 were dropped because their records were missing data on the respondent, the respondent's spouse, or the respondent's children.
Selection criteria • Households with working respondents (270) or two respondents each of whom helped the other (25) were dropped • Only the black and white non-Hispanic groups were sufficiently large to be included once households were dropped for the reasons listed above
Selection criteria • Households included in AHEAD contain at least one respondent 70 years old or older. • Many households also include spouses, some of whom are less then 70 years old. • Spouses of respondents are, themselves, respondents
Descriptive Statistics • Among 65% of 2876 households reporting receipt of paid help in their homes, average payment was $31/week and maximum was $570/week • 58% of households reported receiving some help from kids (avg: 22 hours/week) • Men (37% of sample) are, on average, 77 years old, have 11. 7 years of education, have 2 living children; 72% are married, and 93% are white
Descriptive statistics • Women (63% of sample) are, on average, 77 years old, have 11. 8 years of education, have 2 living children; 42% are married, and 90% are white • 19% of men and 24% of women have an ADL • 49% of children are male, 71% are married; avg kid is 47 years old with 2 children • Imputed wages using CPS: avg imputed wage is $510/week • Other state-specific variables: price level (BEA); cost of home health care; avg home health care state subsidy (HCFA)
Empirical Specification
Empirical Specification
Empirical specification • β 30 k and β 4 j 0 k can not be identified separately because the parents’ leisure time is determined jointly with their caregiving time. Thus, we set β 30 k=0 with no loss in generality. • Increasing all of the β terms by the same proportion has no effect on choices. Thus, we set β 2 i=1.
Empirical Specification
Identification • Inclusion of “happy” variable allows us to decompose informal care effects into burden and quality of care effects. • For example, if we were to observe that the provision of informal care by children has a very small empirical effect on the parent's happiness relative to the effect of variables affecting Z, we would conclude that α is very small and β 4 i >0. • Alternatively, if we were to observe that very little informal care is provided but those parents who receive it are usually happier, we would conclude that α is large and β 4 i <0.

Goodness-of-fit Results
Policy Experiments • Provide a subsidy of q. F to each parent that must be used formal care (formal care stamps) • Provide a subsidy of F to each child for each unit of time she provides informal care • Provide a subsidy of F for each dollar spent on formal care (reduction in the price of formal care) • Provide a lump sum of F to the parent • Increase the income limit for Medicaid • Provide a subsidy of q. F to each parent for each ADL problem that must be used formal care.
