Scientific Data DocumentationAccess To Care File, 1993DSN: CC37.NHIS93.ACCESSX ABSTRACT General Information 1. The 1993 National Health Interview Survey (NHIS) Access data file contains a variety of data items addressing access to health care services. 2. The 1993 Access topic was administered only in the last half of 1993 (Quarters 3 and 4) for everyone in the NHIS. Some questions either in the Access topic or in the core person data refer to a 2 week time period and some conditions, health status and health care utilization items are known to have seasonal variations in reporting. The data on this file might not yield annual estimates similar to that obtained if the Access topic was fielded for the entire survey year, especially for those variables known to be subject to seasonal variation/reporting. The 1993 Access file is structured in the following way: a. The NHIS person record from the core questionnaire (locations 1-335) (removing annual weight fields) b. The special topic data (locations 336-389) 3. In 1993, two types of item non-response were identified: (1) "Not ascertained" (codes 8, 98, or 998) includes blanks when there should have been a response or when an impossible code appeared and; (2) Responses of "don't know" or "refused" when the question was asked (codes 9, 99 and 999). 4. The overall response rate for the 1993 Access was 88.6 percent. This response rate was calculated as follows: Household response rate from core for the 3rd and 4th quarters (94.7 percent) multiplied by 93.6 percent who responded to the Access section yielding an overall response rate of 88.6 percent. Dummy records were created for those with no response to the entire section. Weights and Variances 5. Weights and variances: Since the NHIS uses a multistage sample design to represent the civilian non-institutionalized population of the United States, weights must be used to make accurate estimates based on data from the National Health Interview Survey. A set of weights are included on the 1993 file: The first weight listed below (i.e. the Final Access Basic Weight) will be used in most analyses of the Access data. The Final Basic Weight (location 210-218) is the equivalent of the semi-Annual Final Basic Weight found on the NHIS Person Record of the Basic Health and Demographic component of the survey (i.e. the Core questionnaire). Because the Access supplement was only conducted during the third and fourth quarters of 1993, a national estimate of all person level variables can be made using this weight. This weight will be used in conjunction with Access data items in file locations 336-389. Interim Basic Weights (before age-sex-race adjustment) are required by some software packages for variance estimation for surveys with complex sample designs. This weight is also included on the file. There are a number of computer programs that yield variance estimates for data based on complex sample surveys. Some are based on replication approaches and others are based on Taylor linearization approaches. In addition to the Interim Basic Weight (which is the weight prior to poststratifi- cation), included on the Access file is the Full Sample Stratum Identifier (loc. 179-181), the Pseudo Primary Sampling Unit (PSU) Codes (loc. 187-189), and the Type of PSU (loc. 185) to permit the analyst the capability of using such variance estimation procedures. These variables and weights are necessary for directly calculating sampling variances. Estimating semi-annual numbers of events or conditions 6. Estimating semi-annual numbers of events or conditions Note: The data on this file might not yield annual estimates similar to that obtained if the Access topic was fielded for the entire survey year, especially for those variables known to be subject to seasonal variation/reporting. a. To reduce respondent error, the recall period for questions about some events is limited to two weeks. These events are: bed days and other restricted activity days, work loss and school loss days, and doctor visits. The two-week variables are found in locations 98-107 and 120-121. Estimates of the total number of occurrences of these events in the population can be derived as follows: Number of events x 13 (number of two-week periods in a year) x Final Basic Weight = Total number of events occurring in the population during the semi-annual period, i.e. 1993. Example: Number of bed days (loc. 100-101) x 13 x Final Basic Weight (loc. 210-218) = total number of bed days reported for the population in 1993. b. The recall period for acute incidence conditions is also two weeks and a national estimate of the total number of acute incidence conditions is calculated using the same procedures as for two-week events for the semi-annual period. Number of acute incidence conditions x 13 x Final Basic Weight = Total number of acute incidence conditions occurring in the population during the last half of 1993. Note: An acute incidence condition is an acute condition with onset during the two weeks preceding the date of interview. c. The recall period for information on hospitalizations is 12 months. However, in calculating number of discharges (locations 132-133, 137-138), only discharges occurring in the past 6 months are counted. Therefore, the weighted estimates must be calculated as follows: Number of discharges x Final Basic Weight = Total number of discharges occurring in the population in the last half of 1993.Calculation of rates for events and conditions 7. Calculation of rates for events and conditions: The number of events or conditions estimated for the population, as described in item 6, above, can be used as the basis for calculating rates of occurrence of these events (or conditions) per person and per 100 persons for the total U.S. population and for various population subgroups. Note: Only rates can be estimated from these data. The percent of the population experiencing a particular type of event during the data year cannot be estimated. {The percent of the population experiencing the event in the reporting period (i.e. two weeks or 6 months) can be estimated but is generally not meaningful.} 8. Data on hospital episodes and days, based on a 12-month recall are in locations 122-131. The Final Basic Weight is used for calculating estimates of these events in the same way it is used for all other person-based variables. These variables do permit estimating the percent of the population in this semi annual period experiencing a hospital episode in the past year and the percent of that population having a specified number of hospital days.Guidelines for Citation of Data 9. Guidelines for Citation of Data With the goal of mutual benefit, the National Center for Health Statistics (NCHS) requests that recipients of data files cooperate in certain actions related to their use. Any published material derived from the data should acknowledge NCHS as the original source. The suggested citation to appear at the bottom of all tables is as follows: Source: National Center for Health Statistics (1993) When cited in a bibliography, the suggested citation should read: National Center for Health Statistics (1994). Data File Documentation, National Health Interview Survey of Access to care, 1993 (machine readable data file and documentation), National Center for Health Statistics, Hyattsville, Maryland The published material should also include a disclaimer that credits any analyses, interpretations, or conclusions reached to the author (recipient of the data file) and not to NCHS, which is responsible only for the initial data. Consumers who wish to publish a technical description of the data should make a reasonable effort to insure that the description is not inconsistent with that published by NCHS.RECORD LAYOUT Locations 1 - 42 1993 NATIONAL HEALTH INTERVIEW SURVEY ACCESS TO CARE PUBLIC USE FILE Outline of Items and Codes 61,287 Records ______________________________________________________________________________ Tape Locations Item No. Frequency Items and Codes ______________________________________________________________________________ 1-2 - RECORD TYPE 61,287 70.
