  • Notes: See notes to Table 2. For mental health visits, data only start in 2007, so the long-run average impact is for t + 1 to t + 4. Mental health diagnosis defined as having at least one mental-health-related visit in the year for a specific disorder. Dependent mean refers to period t – 2, and percent effect is the DiD estimate divided by the dependent mean. Standard errors in parentheses. Significance: *p < 0.10, **p < 0.05.
