Lecture | The Determinants of Unequal Access to Health Care in the U.S., and the Consequences

Thursday, October 31, 2019, 4:30 pm

Free

Though average life expectancy has increased from 68 years of age in 1950 to 79 years of age in 2015, inequality in life expectancy remains high in the United States, especially compared to other developed countries. Across age groups, inequality in life expectancy among infants and children has decreased, but inequality in life expectancy among older adults has increased. Moreover, most of the recent gains in life expectancy come from medical advancements that treat conditions that occur in middle age and at the end of life, rather than in early life.

This presentation will explore how changes in the U.S. health care system in recent years have affected access to care for different populations, and how differential access to care has contributed to inequality in life expectancy and other health outcomes.

Speaker Jessica Van Parys is an Assistant Professor of Economics at Hunter College.
