Subject Innovation Policies

Lecturers Jorge Vélez

Year 2019-2020

Subject description

The course introduces students to the topic of innovation as a major force for economic growth and innovation policies aimed at promoting technological development and innovation. The goal of the course is to familiarize students with government policies to support innovation, to guide them through the empirical research on these topics, and let them explore interesting research questions on their own. During the course, we study some general questions on innovation activities of firms, such as the link between R&D, innovation, and productivity, and the ways of organizing for innovation, in particular, knowledge sourcing strategies; we then discuss how government intervention, more specifically, patent protection, government funded R&D, and trade reforms, influences firms’ innovation output. We also review and discuss the empirical research on these topics. By completing this course the students should be able to: 1) understand relevant determinants and performance implications of firm innovation activities; 2) explain and discuss the public policies for stimulating innovation and their underlying rationale; 3) assess the impact of these policies using methods from the empirical studies.

Course format

The course follows the problem based learning (PBL). Instead of ingesting knowledge, students construct their own knowledge! This is done in seven straightforward steps, which revolve around a specific task (or "problem"). These tasks present a situation, problem or an assignment that students will need to solve as a group. The solution process is structure in seven steps

Reading the task and clarifying the concepts Defining the problem Analysing the problem: brainstorming to collect prior knowledge and best

guesses Analysing the problem: structuring your knowledge Formulating learning goals Self-study: identifying sources, studying, preparing report for post

discussion. Reporting back to the group.

Subject Health Economics and Policy Analysis

Lecturers Pau Olivella

Year 2019-2020

Subject description The course will provide a broad overview of the field of health economics. It is designed to illustrate how economists analyze topics related to the production of health and the delivery of health care. The course will examine how standard concepts and methods in economics can be used to understand health-related decisions made by individuals, providers and health authorities. It will also study the application of economics to health care policy, with a focus on how economic analysis can assist in the development of market and non-market solutions to various health care problems.

We will focus on theories of microeconomics with specific applications to the health care system. Using economic analysis, the course will examine important health policy issues such as the integration of the health care delivery system, the role of government programs, the impact of competition and regulation on providers and patients, the design of health insurance plans, managed care, the value of health care, and strategies for containing health care costs and increasing access to health care. Particular attention will rely on the role of incentives in shaping the structure, conduct and performance of the health care sector.

Course contents

1. What is Health Economics 1.1 Differential characteristics of health economics 1.2 The organization of a health care system 1.3 Structure of a health care system

This chapter introduces the topic of health economics. Describes generically the elements of a health system, identifies the agents that participate in this system and their decision-making, and looks at the characteristics that make the sector subject of study within the economy.

2. Demand for health and health care 2.1 Value of life and quality of life 2.2 Demand for health

When individuals become ill, they demand health care services to recover their full capacity to develop their regular activities. This chapter examines the patient’s demands of health treatments and what are the elements determining such demand.


3. Health insurance 3.1 Basic concepts 3.2 Uncertainty and risk 3.3 Insurance

The occurrence of a sickness episode contains elements beyond the control of the very individual, but also it is conditioned by life habits. These circumstances are captured by the concepts of uncertainty and risk. At the same time, a sickness episode translates into a shock to the individual’s income. To cover against this shock, the individual has the possibility to purchase insurance. This chapter is devoted to study the relation between risk and insurance as well as the elements determining the decision to contract in partially durance.

4. Contracts and asymmetric information 4.1 The problem of information 4.2 Imperfect information and competition 4.3 Incentives in the health care sector 4.4 Asymmetric information and the conflict of objectives 4.5 Supplier-induced demand

One of the main features in the healthcare market place is the prevalence of asymmetric information between patients and providers, between patients and insurers, and between providers and insurers. This has important consequences in understanding the incentives of the different agents in their relations with other agents, and in their decision-making. This chapter is devoted to studying how agents can align their incentives through contracts.

5. Supply of health care 5.1 Production functions for hospitals 5.2 Cost functions for hospitals 5.3 The objective function of a hospital 5.4 Reimbursement systems

The chapter studies how providers of healthcare services determine their level of provision and quality. The focus relies mainly in the hospital decision-making. In particular, we identify different models of a hospital according to what objectives do agents in charge of decision making have.

6. For-profit and nonprofit organizations 6.1 Why do nonprofit organizations exist? 6.2 Modeling nonprofit organizations 6.3 What do nonprofit hospital maximize?

The presence of nonprofit institutions is a distinctive feature in the healthcare sector. Thus, the first question is to identify the differential characteristics of a nonprofit institution from a for-profit one. Next, we investigate the coexistence of nonprofit and for-profit institutions.

7. What is Health Policy This is an introductory chapter to the meaning and content of health care policy.


8. Competition and Regulation 8.1 Yardstick competition 8.2 Regulating the health care market

The chapter studies the main consequences of competition and the regulatory instruments, with a focus in the healthcare market.

9. Equity in health care 9.1 Equity in finance 9.2 Equity in distribution

Equity is probably the main normative question in the analysis of the healthcare marketplace. There are several definitions of equity and thus different policy instruments to achieve it. The chapter is devoted to revise these different approaches to the notion of equity. Attention is devoted to the criteria of financing and distribution as defining elements of equity.

10. The pharmaceutical industry 10.1 Vertical and horizontal differentiation between competing drugs 10.2 Regulation of the pharmaceutical market 10.3 Patents and R&D

In the chapter we review the interaction between producers (pharmaceutical firms), consumers (patients), payers (insurers, patients), consumers’ agents (doctors), and the planner (the health authority).

Assessment policy

Continuing evaluation (assignments, in-class presentations and participation): 15% of the final grade

Midterm written examination: 35% of the final grade Final evaluation (written exam): 50% of the final grade

IMPORTANT: To pass this course, students must attend at least 80% of the lectures (special cases, with appropriate justification, will be considered individually by the professors together with MEBA coordinators).
