Figure 2. RD Estimates for Quarter 1.

Figure 2.

Note: Figure shows regression discontinuity plots of the impact of financial assistance in the first quarter after the application decision. Dots show the mean of the outcome for 85 equal-frequency bins (220 applicants per bin), except for Panel H where there are 32 bins (130 applicants per bin). Solid lines show fitted values from a second-order polynomial; dashed lines show 95% confidence intervals. For each outcome, we also report the RD and IV estimates, their standard errors, and the mean of the outcome for applicants with an income of 350-450% of FPL (i.e., the “control group” mean). Prescription Drug Days Supplied is winsorized at the 95th percentile.
