Two-step estimators often called upon to fit censored regression models in many areas of science and engineering. Since censoring incurs a bias in the naive least-squares fit, a two-step estimator first estimates the bias and then fits a corrected linear model. We develop a framework for performing valid /post-correction inference/ with two-step estimators. By exploiting recent results on post-selection inference, we obtain valid confidence intervals and significance tests for the fitted coefficients.
