Περιγραφή
Περίληψη:This study considers market entry determinants for both for profit and non profit at home long term care providers in Japan. It examines market structure incentives and barriers to entry using a panel dataset of 48 Japanese municipalities for the 2003 2011 period. Estimation results show that for profits and non profits face different determinants of entry. Potential for profit entrants are sensitive to profit considerations and therefore adapt to the market structure and clear barriers to entry. However, potential non profits with preferential tax treatment and the constraint of non distribution of profits enter disadvantaged municipalities. Both profits and non profits have become integrated in Japanese at home care markets.
