We use health care claims data from the Health Care Cost Institute to estimate the share of geographic variation in health care spending attributable to person-specific (demand) and place-specific (supply) factors. We exploit patient migration across 112 metropolitan areas between 2012 and 2016. Using an event study approach, we find that moving to an area with 10% higher (lower) spending leads to a 4.2% increase (decrease) in individual medical spending. Our estimate implies that 42% of variation in health care spending among the commercially insured is attributable to place-specific factors. We show that variation in both price and utilization jointly determine the place-specific impact on individual spending. All else equal, we find that moving to an area with 10% higher (lower) prices, on average leads to a 5% increase (decrease) in spending, while moving to an area with 10% higher (lower) utilization leads to a 3.6% increase (decrease).
