Using trivariate copulas to model sample selection and treatment effects: application to family health care demand

Article Abstract:

The use of the copula approach for a model is considered with three jointly determined outcomes and also deals with the discrete case in which outcome include a mixture of dichotomous choices and discrete count data. The technique is applied to study self-selection and interdependence between health insurance and health care demand among married couples and the full model consists of a dichotomous choice equation for family insurance and a separate negative binomial equation for each spouse's health care use.
