Replication package for "Does Advertising Expand the Market for Hospital Services? Evidence from Medicare"

Description

This package contains the Stata code used to construct the analysis sample and produce all tables and figures in the paper "Does Advertising Expand the Market for Hospital Services? Evidence from Medicare" in the Journal of Health Economics. Authors are Abby Alpert, Atul Gupta, Michael Richards, Sarah Schutz, and Christopher Whaley. It does NOT contain the underlying data since the key data files (Medicare claims and Nielsen Ad Intel) are proprietary and subject to data use agreements (DUAs) and therefore cannot be redistributed.
