How is the trade-off between adverse selection and discrimination risk affected by genetic testing? : theory and experiment

We compare two genetic testing regulations, Disclosure Duty (DD) and Consent Law (CL), in an environment where individuals choose to take a genetic test or not. DD forces agents to reveal the test results to their insurers, resulting in a discrimination risk. CL allows agents to withhold that inform...

DD forces agents to reveal the test results to their insurers, resulting in a discrimination risk. CL allows agents to withhold that information, generating adverse selection. We complement our model with an experiment. We obtain that a larger fraction of agents test under CL than under DD, and that the proportion of individuals preferring CL to DD is non-monotone in the test cost when adverse selection is set endogenously at its steady state level.Comparamos dos regulaciones de las pruebas genéticas, Disclosure Duty (DD) y Consent Law (CL), en un contexto en el cual los individuos escogen hacerse una prueba o no. DD obliga los individuos a revelar el resultado de la prueba a sus aseguradores, lo que crea una discriminación de los riesgos. CL permite a los individuos guardar esta información, lo que crea selección adversa. Complementamos nuestro modelo con un experimento. Obtenemos que una proporción más grande de individuos hace la prueba bajo CL que bajo DD, y que la proporción de individuos que prefieren CL a DD no es monótona con el costo de la prueba cuando la selección adversa se determina de manera endógena a su estado estacionario.33 páginasapplication/pdfspaUniversidad de los Andes, Facultad de Economía, CEDEDocumentos CEDE No. 23 Marzo de 2017https://ideas.repec.org/p/col/000089/015465.htmlHow is the trade-off between adverse selection and discrimination risk affected by genetic testing? : theory and experiment¿Cómo la tensión entre la selección adversa y la discriminación de los riesgos es afectada por las pruebas genéticas? : teoría y experimentoDocumento de trabajoinfo:eu-repo/semantics/workingPaperhttp://purl.org/coar/resource_type/c_8042http://purl.org/coar/version/c_970fb48d4fbd8a85Texthttps://purl.org/redcol/resource_type/WPConsent lawDisclosure dutyPersonalized medicineTest take up ratePooling health insurance contractsGenética humana - Aspectos económicosConsentimiento (Derecho)Divulgación de informaciónC91, D82, I18Facultad de EconomíaPublicationTHUMBNAILdcede2017-23.pdf.jpgdcede2017-23.pdf.jpgIM Thumbnailimage/jpeg11265https://repositorio.uniandes.edu.co/bitstreams/26a86a57-79cb-41d2-986a-45ebf1efc62f/download7886724fe33396e2b5843822eae0e73eMD55ORIGINALdcede2017-23.pdfdcede2017-23.pdfapplication/pdf3000913https://repositorio.uniandes.edu.co/bitstreams/6a907481-6772-4129-906f-b14d9110e6d2/downloadd53e1a08fc609641f64fc14cf5fda2e4MD51TEXTdcede2017-23.pdf.txtdcede2017-23.pdf.txtExtracted texttext/plain95216https://repositorio.uniandes.edu.co/bitstreams/3f3b0f58-1687-4391-b869-00a18862e557/download9bdd947c5c9533656b0d24469909eba4MD541992/8681oai:repositorio.uniandes.edu.co:1992/86812024-06-04 15:42:05.823http://creativecommons.org/licenses/by-nc-nd/4.0/open.accesshttps://repositorio.uniandes.edu.coRepositorio institucional Sénecaadminrepositorio@uniandes.edu.co
