    Many health care systems aim to enhance hospital quality by encouraging competition. However, evidence on the relationship between quality and competition is inconclusive. My contribution to this literature is two-fold. Analyzing the relationship between competition and quality for the German hospital market can give valuable insights about the nature of the relationship in a market with regulated prices that is characterized by a high number of hospitals and a diverse ownership structure. While most studies look at competition as market structure, I distinguish effects of market structure from effects of strategic behavior. I find evidence for a significant, non-linear relationship between market structure and care quality. Additionally, I find evidence for strategic behavior. Viele Gesundheitssysteme versuchen, die Qualität von Krankenhäusern Wettbewerbsanreize zu verbessern. Der Zusammenhang zwischen Qualität und Wettbewerb ist jedoch nicht eindeutig belegt und stark von der konkreten Ausgestaltung des jeweiligen Krankenhausmarktes abhängig. Die Analyse des Zusammenhangs zwischen Wettbewerb und Qualität für den deutschen Krankenhausmarkt kann wertvolle Erkenntnisse über die Art der Beziehung liefern in einem Markt mit regulierten Preisen, der durch eine hohe Anzahl von Krankenhäusern und einer vielfältigen Eigentümerstruktur gekennzeichnet ist. Während die meisten Studien den Wettbewerb als Marktstruktur betrachten, unterscheide ich Effekte der Marktstruktur von Effekten des strategischen Verhaltens. Ich finde Belege für eine signifikante, nicht-lineare Beziehung zwischen Marktstruktur und Versorgungsqualität. Außerdem finde ich Belege für strategisches Verhalten.

    This paper focuses on the spatial variation in the uptake of social security benefits following a large and detrimental exogenous shock. Specifically, we focus on the Global Financial Crisis (GFC) and the onset of the COVID-19 pandemic. We construct a two-period panel of 66 Territorial Authorities (TAs) of New Zealand (NZ) observed in 2008-09 and 2020-21. We find that, despite the totally different nature of the two shocks, the initial increase in benefit uptake due to the COVID-19 pandemic was of a similar magnitude as that of the GFC, and the spatial pattern was also quite similar. We link the social security data with 146 indicator variables across 15 domains that were obtained from population censuses that were held two years before each of the two periods. To identify urban characteristics that point to economic resilience, we formulate spatial panel regression models. Additionally, we use machine learning techniques. We find that the most resilient TAs had two years previously: (1) a low unemployment rate; and (2) a large public sector. Additionally, but with less predictive power, we find that TAs had a smaller increase in social security uptake after the shock when they had previously: (3) a high employment rate (or high female labour force participation rate); (4) a smaller proportion of the population stating ethnicities other than NZ European; (5) a smaller proportion of the population living in more deprived area units. We also find that interregional spillovers matter and that resilient regions cluster.
