The goal of this project is to test the feasibility of linking Moving To Opportunity (MTO) with insurance claims data. MTO is a social experiment in which families living in public housing were randomized to remain in public housing, receive a housing voucher that could only be used in a low poverty neighborhood, or receive an unrestricted housing voucher. We plan to assess the impact of neighborhood vouchers on health care spending and utilization.
