- W3158369366 abstract "Health shocks may have significant consequences for the poor in countries without established health insurance systems. The burden of such shocks may be greater if its consequences are transferred to human capital formation of children in families that are unable to access affordable healthcare. Therefore, access to health insurance, may not only play a role in determining school expenditure, but in differential enrollment of boys versus girls. Using two rounds of nationally representative survey data, I examine the impact of India’s national health insurance scheme (RSBY), launched in 2008, on household schooling decisions and gender differences in education. Employing difference-in-differences and triple differences approaches, I find that access to RSBY is beneficial for child education as school expenditure increases as a result of the treatment. I also find RSBY to be relatively more advantageous to girls as it reduces the existing gender gap in school enrollment. I conclude that while RSBY was implemented with the intention of reducing financial burden for the poor, it has unintended positive consequences for children. Not only does the share of school expenditure increase, but RSBY perhaps provides additional resources to parents, in a society that depends largely on sons for support during old age, to not exclude their daughters from education opportunities" @default.
