Funding Affordable Housing by Selling Health

 

This short excerpt of a presentation by David Erickson of the Federal Reserve Bank introduces the concept of a "Market for Health" and how various organizations that "produce health" might get funding by selling the outcomes to those who otherwise pay for poor health. Organizations that help enhance affordable and healthy housing might get funding in this way.
