Bradley Herring
Brad Herring, Paul College's McKerley Professor of Health Economics, recently received the 2023 Paper of the Year award from the journal Housing Policy Debate for his coauthored paper entitled "Using the Moving to Opportunity Experiment to Investigate the Long-Term Impact of Neighborhoods on Healthcare Use by Specific Clinical Conditions and Type of Service."
In their announcement, the Award Committee wrote: "The Moving to Opportunity experiment was an expensive undertaking meant to guide policy on rental assistance delivery. The results of the experiment have been debated over the years and continue to have relevance. This paper joins the Moving to Opportunity experimental results with the debate over healthcare use, another issue driving much of the debate on how to design the social safety net. The authors addressed a cutting-edge topic, employed careful methods, and provided clear and powerful implications for housing policy."
