National Medical Expenditure Survey, 1987: Household Survey, Long-Term Care Supplement [Public Use Tape 10] (ICPSR 9675)
Released/updated on: 2006-01-18
Geographic coverage: United States
Time period: 1987-01-01--1988-01-01
The Long-Term Care (LTC) Supplement contains data on the functional status of persons responding to Rounds 1 and 4 of the Household Survey of the 1987 National Medical Expenditure Survey (NMES). The series of questions on functional status includes items on Activities of Daily Living (ADL) and instrumental ADL (IADL), continence, and use of special equipment. For those persons having at least one ADL or IADL difficulty, questions were asked about use of community services such as adult day care, senior centers, home-delivered and congregate meals, special transportation, and telephone assurance. Information was also sought on prior nursing home stays, and financial help from someone outside of the household. The Demographics and Sampling Weights file contains person-level data for individuals who responded for their entire period of NMES eligibility (Rounds 1, 2, 3, and 4). Each record contains person identifiers, selected characteristics including age, sex, race/ethnicity, and census region, dates of interview, a response-per-round indicator for the LTC Supplements, imputation flags for ADL/IADL, and sampling weight variables. The LTC Supplement population represented in File 2 is a subset of persons in File 1. File 2 is composed of separate records for LTC data collected during Round 1 (N=33,971) and during Round 4 (N=33,986).

National Medical Expenditure Survey, 1987: Institutional Population Component (ICPSR 9280)
Released/updated on: 2006-03-30
Geographic coverage: United States
This survey was designed to yield national estimates of the use of and expenditures for care during 1987 by persons who resided in nursing homes or facilities for the mentally retarded. The Facility Questionnaire was completed by administrators of 1,501 participating facilities (810 nursing homes and 691 facilities for the mentally retarded). Data records contain bed size, type of ownership, facility certification, services routinely provided, average cost, and other information. Weights, which must be used to generate nationally representative facility-level estimates, are provided. The Baseline Questionnaire file contains data collected from institutional caregivers and next of kin of 6,965 randomly sampled persons who were living in the sampled facilities on January 1, 1987. Data include sociodemographic information such as age, race, and sex. Information on residences prior to admission, measures of functional limitations and chronic conditions, and the work history of persons in facilities for the mentally retarded is also provided. Person level records can be linked to facility records and include person weights for obtaining national estimates. The documentation file includes an overview of the entire 1987 National Medical Expenditure Survey (NMES), which is expected to produce 15 files of data. The documentation provides frequencies, questionnaires, and technical information on sample design, weights, and variance estimation.

National Medical Expenditure Survey, 1987: Institutional Population Component, Facility Questionnaire Weight Update [Public Use Tape 6] (ICPSR 9676)
Released/updated on: 1992-02-17
Geographic coverage: United States
The 1987 National Medical Expenditure Survey (NMES) Public Use Tape 6 contains data from a survey of two kinds of long-term care facilities: those for the mentally retarded, and nursing and personal care homes. The Facility Questionnaire was completed by administrators or designated staff of the participating facilities. The items include number of beds, type of ownership, facility certification, services routinely provided, staffing, average cost, sources of payment for residents, and levels of basic costs. Additional variables were collected on the facilities for the mentally retarded: education and habilitation services, licensure and accreditation, and sources of revenue in addition to direct client fees. Public Use Tape 6 differs from the data in the Facility Questionnaire file of Public Use Tape 2, National Medical Expenditure Survey, 1987: Institutional Population Component (ICPSR 9280) only in the provision of a revised sampling weight variable. The new sampling weight includes adjustment not only for different probabilities of a facility being selected, nonresponse, and stratification measures, but also for duplication in the sampling frame.

Geographic coverage: United States
Time period: 2004-08-01--2004-12-01
The National Nursing Home Survey (NNHS) is a survey of nursing homes and related care facilities in the United States. During 2004, information regarding facility and financial characteristics was gathered from 1,174 facilities, along with current resident information for 13,507 residents, with additional information from 3,017 Nursing Assistants. The 2004 NNHS, conducted between August and December of 2004, was reintroduced into the field after a five-year break, during which time the survey was redesigned and expanded to collect many new data items using the National Nursing Assistant Survey (NNAS), which was sponsored by the Office of the Assistant Secretary for Planning and Evaluation (APSE) and is the first national study of nursing assistants working in nursing facilities in the United States. Facilities (DS 1) information was gathered through personal interviews with facility administrators and provided information on topics such as certification, availability of beds, and kinds of services provided, including dental, hospice, and nutrition. Current Residents (DS 2) information includes questions regarding age, race, marital status, level of care, and use of aids such as walkers, hearing aids, and crutches. Nursing Assistants (Part 3) information looked at the important role of nursing assistants in providing long-term care services for the growing population of the elderly and chronically ill. The NNAS gathered information regarding recruitment, education, training and licensure, job history, and family life, along with client relations, job satisfaction, and workplace environment.
