520 3 _aJob duration patterns are examined for evidence of health insurance-related job lock among chronically ill workers or workers whose family member is chronically ill. Using Cox proportional hazard models to indicate the effect of health insurance and health status on workers`job duration we allow for more general insurance effects that show in the existing literature. Data for workers in Indiana predating the Health Insurance Portability and Acountability Act (HIPAA) are used to examine the potential effect of HIPAA on job mobility. Among the workers in this sample who relied on their employer for coverage, chronic illness reduced job mobility by about 40 percent as compared with otherwise similar workers who did not rely on their employer for coverage. Results reported here identify previously under-appreciated job lock among chronically ill workers and workers whose family member is chronicaly ill, clarify how one best researches job lock, and indicate the potential effect of policies aimed at allevianting job lock and promoting inter-employer worker mobility
