Medical marijuana laws and mental health in the United States
Health Econ Policy Law. 2024 Apr 2:1-16. doi: 10.1017/S1744133124000033. Online ahead of print.ABSTRACTThe consequences of legal access to medical marijuana for individuals' well-being are controversially assessed. We contribute to the discussion by evaluating the impact of the introduction of medical marijuana laws across US states on self-reported mental health considering different motives for cannabis consumption.

The roads to managed competition for mixed public-private health systems: a conceptual framework
Health Econ Policy Law. 2024 Apr 2:1-16. doi: 10.1017/S1744133123000373. Online ahead of print.ABSTRACTHealth systems' insurance/funding can be organised in several ways. Some countries have adopted systems with a mixture of public-private involvement (e.g. Australia, Chile, Ireland, South Africa, New Zealand) which creates two-tier health systems, allowing consumers (groups) to have preferential access to the basic standard of care (e.g. skipping waiting times). The degree to which efficiency and equity are achieved in these types of systems is questioned. In this paper, we consider integration of the two tiers by means o...
