DESCRIPTION:Abstract: From the social sciences to machine learning\, it has
  been well documented that metrics to be optimized are not always aligned 
 with social welfare. In healthcare\, Dranove et al. (2003) showed that pub
 lishing surgery mortality metrics actually harmed the welfare of sicker pa
 tients by increasing provider selection behavior. We analyze the incentive
  misalignments that arise from such average treated outcome metrics\, and 
 show that the incentives driving treatment decisions would align with maxi
 mizing total patient welfare if the metrics (i) accounted for counterfactu
 al untreated outcomes…
