We use data from the Familias en Acción program in Colombia to examine the spillover or indirect effects of a conditional cash transfer program. Our results show that the program has significant spillover effects: it leads to an improvement in the health of non-targeted individuals in treatment households in terms of both incidence and severity of illness. The benefits are stronger for women and the elderly in the short run and for men in the medium run. Our analysis suggests that these spillovers are driven by increased access to information in the household that creates a public good.

有条件现金转移计划的健康溢出效应

我们使用来自哥伦比亚Familias enAcción计划的数据来检查有条件现金转移计划的溢出或间接影响。我们的结果表明，该计划具有显着的溢出效应：从疾病的发生率和严重程度来看，它可以改善治疗家庭中非目标人群的健康。在短期内，对妇女和老年人而言，在中期，对男性而言，收益更大。我们的分析表明，这些溢出是由家庭中获得公共信息的机会增加所驱动的。
