Notes: Regressions of hospitalization plus ER rates on foreclosure rates also included zip code fixed, effects, county*quarter*year effects and time trends for clusters of zip codes. Standard errors in parentheses. ***, **, and * indicate that the estimate is statistically significant at the 99th, 95th, and 90th percent level of confidence. Bold face indicates that the sum of lags is significantly different than zero.
