MPRA Paper from University Library of Munich, Germany

Abstract: This paper performs a systematic review on whether there is a relationship between health insurance and self-employment. There are three types of findings available regarding this issue in the entrepreneurship literature. First, health insurance clearly plays a vital role when individuals choose to become self-employed. Second, there is some evidence of the effect of health insurance on entrepreneurial choices for some individuals with some demographic characteristics, like married women, students, people with disabilities, etc. Third, the evidence of relationship between health insurance and entrepreneurial choices is anecdotal.
