The National Science Foundation awarded a $500,000 Project Grant to the National Bureau Of Economic Research Inc. doing business as Nber, for the period of April 1, 2021 through March 31, 2024. The grant is part of the NSF's Social, Behavioral, and Economic Sciences program (CFDA 47.075), which aims to support basic research and education in these fields as well as monitor science investments.
Under this award, Nber will conduct research on the mortality effects of health insurance networks and providers. The grant appears intended to further the NSF program's goals by contributing new scientific insights into how health insurance structures impact outcomes. Key deliverables will likely include published research reports analyzing insurance data and drawing conclusions on network design and provider selection implications. Such information could aid policymaking on expanding access to quality care.
