dc.description.abstractThis is a doctoral dissertation about Chile's parallel health care system. The primary chapter studies the relationship between inadequate insurance coverage and considerable price dispersion in the private sector. It explains how the two features naturally arise in the health insurance and hospital markets. Other chapters explore the pricing incentives of private hospitals and how patients make choices based on their sickness. This dissertation identifies some of the fundamental inefficiencies of health care in Chile and proposes a direction of reform.
