Evaluating the effects of policy interventions subject to early adoption: A case study of prescription drug monitoring programs and opioid dispensing
Sarika Aggarwal, Brent A. Coull, Nima Hejazi +1
Policies that require organizations to use new systems, such as prescription drug monitoring programs (PDMPs), are often implemented in phases, with an initial period of voluntary…
Fair Policy Learning under Bipartite Network Interference: Learning Fair and Cost-Effective Environmental Policies
Raphael C. Kim, Rachel C. Nethery, Kevin L. Chen +1
Numerous studies have shown the harmful effects of airborne pollutants on human health. Vulnerable groups and communities often bear a disproportionately larger health burden due t…
Practical considerations for Gaussian Process modeling for causal inference quasi-experimental studies with panel data
Sofia L. Vega, Rachel C. Nethery
Estimating causal effects in quasi-experiments with spatio-temporal panel data often requires adjusting for unmeasured confounding that varies across space and time. Gaussian Proce…
Difference-in-Differences under Bipartite Network Interference: A Framework for Quasi-Experimental Assessment of the Effects of Environmental Policies on Health
Kevin L. Chen, Falco J. Bargagli-Stoffi, Raphael C. Kim +2
Pollution from coal-fired power plants has been linked to substantial health and mortality burdens in the US. In recent decades, federal regulatory policies have spurred efforts to…
A Bayesian Spatial Berkson error approach to estimate small area opioid mortality rates accounting for population-at-risk uncertainty
Emily N Peterson, Rachel C. Nethery, Jarvis T. Chen +4
Monitoring small-area geographical population trends in opioid mortality has large scale implications to informing preventative resource allocation. A common approach to obtain sma…
Causal exposure-response curve estimation with surrogate confounders: a study of air pollution and children's health in Medicaid claims data
Jenny J. Lee, Xiao Wu, Francesca Dominici +1
In this paper, we undertake a case study to estimate a causal exposure-response function (ERF) for long-term exposure to fine particulate matter (PM) and respiratory hospit…
