The findings of this study are as follows: First, using the negative binomial regression with difference-in-differences (DID) estimation, we assess whether the frequency of outpatient before and after the revision of the 1991 Labor Standard Act was affected; Second, the ordinary least squares regression with difference-in-differences estimation is used to assess length of stays and the self-pay health expenses . Third, the coefficient of DID has significant negative impact on the dependent variables in three models. In addition, we also found that commercial health insurance has significant positive influence on the dependent variable of the frequency of outpatient. Furthermore, we found that the higher education the less the frequency of outpatient.
