Summary View help for Summary
The purpose of the National Health Interview Survey (NHIS) is to obtain information about the amount and distribution of illness, its effects in terms of disability and chronic impairments, and the kinds of health services people receive. The 1994 National Health Interview Survey on Disability (NHIS-D), Phase I, was administered at the same time as the NHIS 1994 core, NATIONAL HEALTH INTERVIEW SURVEY, 1994 (ICPSR 6724). This questionnaire collected basic data on disability and was used as a screening device to determine eligibility for the second phase of the survey. This supplement contains four fields: record type, year, person ID, and outcome code for adult and child.

In preparing the data file(s) for this collection, the National Center for Health Statistics (NCHS) has removed direct identifiers and characteristics that might lead to identification of data subjects. As an additional precaution NCHS requires, under Section 308(d) of the Public Health Service Act (42 U.S.C. 242m), that data collected by NCHS not be used for any purpose other than statistical analysis and reporting. NCHS further requires that analysts not use the data to learn the identity of any persons or establishments and that the director of NCHS be notified if any identities are inadvertently discovered.
