Spatial and Temporal Trends in the Economic Value of Biotic Pollination Services in Georgia, USA: 2009–2017

Using a production function approach, we estimate that the economic value of biotic pollination to Georgia’s agriculture increased from $425 million in 2009 to $488 million in 2017 in real terms. We perform spatial analysis to reveal county-level spatial patterns and temporal trends in that value. Using a unique set of pollinator survey data, we also compare the locations of biotic pollinators to the areas they bring the most economic value to, which provides insights on the variation in the dependency of the crop mix to pollination services.

The Impact of Nursing Staff on Satisfaction Scores for U.S. Hospitals: A Production Function Approach

Hospitals have increasingly relied on nurse assistants to support nurses in the provision of patient care, yet knowledge about their contributions to the patient experience in U.S. hospitals is limited. We address this issue by exploring the impact of nurse assistants and registered nurses on an array of patient satisfaction measures from the Medicare Hospital Consumer Assessment of Healthcare Providers and Systems. Using linked data for 2,807 hospitals from 2008 to 2016, we employ a production function approach to estimate and plot marginal impact curves for both nurse assistants and registered nurses. We find that although registered nurses are more impactful, nurse assistants are the more underdeployed staffing category. We also find that after meeting certain thresholds for minimal hours, nurse assistants have a comparative advantage in improving patient satisfaction scores in the housekeeping and patient support domain. Given their lower labor costs, further employment of nurse assistants may be warranted.
