Summary We investigate price sensitivity of demand for prescription drugs, using drug purchase records the entire Danish population. identify responsiveness by exploiting variation in prices caused kinked reimbursement schemes and implement a regression kink design. The results suggest some with corresponding elasticities ranging from −0.2 to −0.7. Individuals chronic disease especially individuals above age 65 respond less drugs.

ABSTRACT This paper estimates the price elasticity of demand for prescription drugs using an exogenous shift in consumer co‐payment caused by a reform Danish subsidy scheme general public. Using purchasing records entire population, I show that average response most commonly used drug yields elasticities range –0.36 to –0.5. The is shown affect women, elderly, and immigrants most. Furthermore, this shows significant heterogeneity over different types antibiotics, suggesting varies...

This paper investigates price sensitivity of demand for prescription drugs using drug purchase records at 20% random sample the Danish population. We identify responsiveness by exploiting exogenous variation in prices caused kinked reimbursement schemes and implement a regression kink design. Thus, within unifying framework we uncover different subpopulations types drugs. The results suggest low average with corresponding elasticities ranging from -0.08 to -0.25, implying that is inelastic....
