I am grateful to Michael Grossman, Joseph Newhouse and an anonymous referee for helpful comments on an earlier version of this paper; to Gavin Mooney, Kjeld Møller Pedersen and Alan Williams for helpful suggestions and encouragement; and to Karl Jöreskog and Dag Sörbom for useful advice on the use of LISREL. None of these persons, however, is responsible for any errors in the paper. Much of the work for this paper was completed whilst I was working at The Swedish Institute for Health Economics: I am grateful to Björn Lindgren for giving me the opportunity to devote so much of my time there to my thesis work. My thanks too to the Danish National Institute of Social Research for making the Danish Welfare Survey available and to the British Economic and Social Research Council for financial assistance.
