National Immunization Survey (NIS), 1995 (ICPSR 3875)

Released/updated on: 2004-04-07
Geographic coverage: United States
This survey is the first in a series that was designed to track the rates of proper vaccination of children in the United States. The target age range for the children was 19 to 35 months. Respondents were queried on the number of children present in the household between the ages of 12 months and 3 years, those children's dates of birth, their sex, whether there were vaccination records for the children, whether those records were accessible, whether the respondent was the adult in the household most knowledgeable about the vaccinations, and whether the respondent accompanied the children to more than 50 percent of their vaccinations. For each child in the household, information was gathered on whether each child had received all of the recommended vaccinations, and the number of the diphtheria-tetanus-pertussis shots (DTP or DT), polio vaccinations, measles vaccinations, meningitis or Haemophilus Influenzae type B (HIB) shots, and hepatitis B (Hep B) shots each child had received. Further information was obtained about additional vaccinations the child may have received to combat diseases such as tuberculosis, typhoid, yellow fever, and malaria, the child's health care providers, the number of doctors that had performed vaccinations, and whether the measles vaccination was strictly for measles or for the measles-mumps-rubella (MMR) combination. Once parental consent was obtained, health care providers were queried on the vaccination records for each child whose vaccination information was gathered from parents. Health care providers were queried on the type and the level of detail of the vaccination records for each child, the dates and types of vaccinations administered, the date of each child's first visit to that provider regardless of reason, the date of the child's most recent visit to that provider regardless of reason, and the type of care the provider gave to the child. Health care provider respondents were asked to describe their facility, to give their position within the facility, the child's date of birth according to their records and whether the child was known by another last name, and to provide a list of any additional health care providers for that child. Demographic information provided by the parents or guardians includes the number of people living in the household, the number of people over and under 18 in the household, ethnicity of the child and respondent, marital status of the respondent, respondent's relationship to the child, respondent's education level or that of the child's mother, household income, and whether the child was living at the same address as when he or she was born.

National Medical Expenditure Survey, 1987: Institutional Population Component, Health Care Provider Utilization Data from the Institutional Use and Expenditure Questionnaire for Residents of Nursing and Personal Care Homes and Facilities for Persons with Mental Retardation [Research File 28R] (ICPSR 6732)

Released/updated on: 2006-03-30
Geographic coverage: United States
The National Medical Expenditure Survey (NMES) series provides information on health expenditures by or on behalf of families and individuals, the financing of these expenditures, and each person's use of services. The Institutional Population Component (IPC) is a survey of nursing and personal care homes and facilities for the mentally retarded and residents admitted to those facilities. Information was collected on facilities and their residents at several points during 1987. Use and expenditure estimates for institutionalized persons can be combined with those from the Household component for composite estimates covering most of the civilian population. Information on facilities and residents was collected from facility administrators and caregivers, with additional information collected from next of kin or other knowledgeable respondents. These data were supplemented by Medicare claims information for covered sample persons. Research File 28R provides information collected in the Institutional Use and Expenditure Questionnaire (IUEQ) regarding health care providers, including Medicaid providers. The IUEQ was administered during each round of the IPC to eligible facilities in which sample persons had one or more stays. Part 1, Summary Data, includes demographic characteristics such as age, race, sex, date of admission to sampled facility, and vital status. Part 2, IUEQ Administration and Medical Provider Probes Data, supplies information on what types of medical providers were seen, frequency of any private duty nursing or attendant care services received, and whether the provider of that service was an employee or contractor of the facility, as well as frequency of emergency room and outpatient department visits. Part 3, Medical Provider Utilization Data, includes information about the type of provider, the number of times the provider was seen in total and the number of times in the facility, the number of times the sample person was seen by a provider paid by the facility, and whether that provider was an employee or a contractor of the facility.

National Medical Expenditure Survey, 1987: Survey of American Indians and Alaska Natives, Preliminary Ambulatory Medical Visit Data [Public Use Tape 23.5P] (ICPSR 6221)

Released/updated on: 2006-03-30
Geographic coverage: United States
Time period: 1987-01-01--1987-12-31
The National Medical Expenditure Survey (NMES) series provides information on health expenditures by or on behalf of families and individuals, the financing of these expenditures, and each person's use of services. The Survey of American Indians and Alaska Natives (SAIAN) was designed in collaboration with the Indian Health Service (IHS), and used the same data collection instruments, interview procedures, and time frame as the NMES Household Survey component. However, the SAIAN differed from the Household Survey in several respects. The SAIAN sample was interviewed only three times and was not given the supplements on long-term care, caregiving, and care-receiving. Also, SAIAN respondents were asked additional questions on topics such as use of IHS facilities and traditional medicine, and were given a modified self-administered questionnaire with separate versions for adults and children. Interviewers for the SAIAN were mainly American Indians or Alaska Natives, and about 20 percent of the interviews were not conducted entirely in English. Of these, approximately 40 percent were conducted entirely in the native language of the respondent. Public Use Tape 23.5 provides three data files containing information on the use of and expenditures for ambulatory medical services and sources of payment reported in the SAIAN Survey. An ambulatory visit is defined as a single contact with a medical provider for one or more services in either a hospital outpatient department or emergency room, a setting other than an inpatient hospital (such as a physician's office, a clinic, or a lab), a nursing home, or a person's home. The first file includes visits and telephone calls to physicians' offices (including HMOs and health departments) in settings other than a hospital or at home, and to providers of care (e.g., chiropractors and psychologists). The second file covers visits to hospital outpatient departments, while the third file provides information on visits to hospital emergency rooms, both regardless of provider type. A record on any of these data files represents a unique ambulatory visit. Variables include dates of visits, medical conditions associated with the visit, types of procedures performed, and the main reason for the visit. In addition, each file contains demographic information such as age, sex, and race.

Positive Connections: Connecting HIV-Infected Patients to Care, 2004-2006 [United States] (ICPSR 22482)

Released/updated on: 2010-06-16
Geographic coverage: United States, New England
Time period: 2004-01-01--2006-01-01
The research study Positive Connections tested the Health Systems Navigation (HSN) model, an intervention linking near-peer interventionists with underserved HIV-infected individuals to assist them to become engaged and retained in HIV medical care through supportive services and facilitated referrals. Working with a core group of local AIDS service organizations to identify unstable and out-of-care HIV-positive individuals, the HSN will enroll and provide health system navigation to participants. The principal goal was to enhance the probability that individuals from historically underserved populations would become engaged and retained in high quality, culturally competent HIV care. The theoretical basis for this intervention included individual behavior change models, social and community networks, and provider cultural competence. This project also sought to improve the understanding and the measurement of health care access problems by seeking to determine which problems have indicators and which do not, and to identify steps that can be taken to develop a reliable access monitoring system. The concept of Health Systems Navigator has been developed by the Multicultural AIDS Coalition.

Retention Challenges for HIV-Infected Primary Care Patients 2001-2004 [United States] (ICPSR 22220)

Released/updated on: 2010-08-30
Geographic coverage: Vermont, Rhode Island, United States, Massachusetts, Maine, Connecticut, New Hampshire
Time period: 2001-01-01--2004-01-01
This project examined HIV-infected patients who were lost to follow-up during calendar years 2001-2004 in order to identify reasons patients were leaving care. Sustaining and retaining HIV-infected patients in care has been a consistent challenge to primary care health systems. Continuity, enhancing wellness, and patient engagement are long-term goals in primary care. Factors that influence clients to disengage from care frequently result in patterns of episodic utilization that may compromise the patient's health status and increase their psychosocial vulnerability. The standard of care suggests that HIV-infected patients return for medical follow-up primary care visits four times a year. Since 2001, there have been over 495 patients that have been determined inactive. The project administered telephone and mail surveys to HIV-infected patients that no longer receive care at Fenway Health Center. The survey includes demographic questions, insurance questions, potential reasons for stopping care, and whether the participant is receiving care at another facility. Subsequently, the project connected interviewees into the Health System Navigation (HSN) Project to assist them with seeking HIV medical care. This was accomplished by including prescreener questions in the survey. If a patient is determined to be eligible, they will be invited to participate in the HSN Project.

Robert Wood Johnson Foundation Family Health Insurance Survey, 1993 (ICPSR 6894)

Released/updated on: 2005-06-22
Geographic coverage: Oregon, Vermont, New York, United States, New Mexico, Oklahoma, Colorado, Minnesota, Florida, North Dakota, Washington
Time period: 1993-01-01--1994-01-01
This survey investigated health insurance coverage, as well as access to and use of health services, in each of ten states. With the goal of remedying the previous lack of state-level data, the survey was conducted to aid in defining problems of insurance coverage and to analyze the impacts of states' policy options. The main unit of observation is the health insurance family, which includes the head, spouse, and their children up to age 18, or to age 23 if they were in school. Variables on health insurance coverage include the types of coverage respondents carried (Medicare, Medicaid, additional state or federal programs, and private policies), sources of private policy coverage, premiums paid for private policies, and number of months uninsured during the last year. Access to health care is measured by variables such as the type of usual health care provider, the amount of time it usually took to get to the doctor's office, and whether needed medical care was not received during the previous year. Variables on the utilization of health care include the number of overnight hospital stays, the number of visits to doctors, age at first DPT (diphtheria, whooping cough, and tetanus) shot, age at first oral polio immunization, and the number of months since the most recent breast exam and Pap smear. The survey also elicited self-reported health status and opinions on the health care system, gauged satisfaction/dissatisfaction with health services received, and gathered information on employment, income, education, migration, age, sex, marital status, race, Hispanic origin, and citizenship.
