“…In particular, we reach the same conclusions of the 2015 Ageing Report (European Commission, 2015), in the aggregate, with respect to Greece, Spain and Hungary, while we are less pessimistic than the 2015 Ageing Report with regards to Italy and Ireland. However, our microsimulation approach permits a finer disaggregation of the results, which turns out to be crucial in understanding the dynamic causal mechanisms at work, as explored further in our companion paper (Richardson et al, 2016).…”

“…In addition to the largely deterministic element of the effect of taxation on income, the impacts on the labour market due to changes in work incentives will also be included in HEED. We will do this by adapting a previously created labour supply model which has been implemented using EUROMOD 44. More specifically, we will incorporate a discrete choice random utility maximisation model which estimates the relationship between income and work incentives in order to predict how employment status might change for the following year 45…”

IntroductionGovernment policies on taxation and social security are important determinants of population health outcomes and health inequalities. However, there is a shortage of evidence to inform policymakers of the health consequences of such policies. The Health Equity and Its Economic Determinants project aims to assess the potential impacts of different taxation and social security policies across Europe on population health and health inequalities using a computer-based simulation that provides projections over multiple health domains.Methods and analysisIn the first phase, key input parameters for the model will be estimated using estimation techniques that control for the effects of prior exposure on time-varying confounders and mediators (g-methods). The second phase will involve developing and validating the microsimulation model for the UK. Policy proposals, developed with policymakers, will be simulated in the third phase to investigate the impacts of income tax and social security changes on population health and health inequalities. In the final phase, the microsimulation model will be extended across other European countries.Ethics and disseminationThis project will use deidentified secondary data for which ethical approval and consents were received by the original data collectors. No further ethical approval will be required for our main analytical datasets. Dissemination plans include academic publications, conference presentations, accessible policy briefings, mass media engagement and a project website. Both the syntax and the underlying synthetic data for the HEED microsimulation model will be made freely available through GitHub and the project website.
