The effect of dental insurance on the use of dental care for older adults: a partial identification analysis.

Brent Kreider¹, Richard J Manski², John Moeller², John Pepper³.

Abstract

We evaluate the impact of dental insurance on the use of dental services using a potential outcomes identification framework designed to handle uncertainty created by unknown counterfactuals-that is, the endogenous selection problem-and uncertainty about the reliability of self-reported insurance status. Using data from the health and retirement study, we estimate that utilization rates of adults older than 50 years would increase from 75% to around 80% under universal dental coverage.
