This report focuses on the MEPS Medical Provider Component (MPC) data collection efforts that collected information from medical providers on health care events that took place between January 1, 2016, and December 31, 2016. The report describes the MPC sample design, survey methodology, procedures for data collection, sample sizes and response rates as well as the relationship between the MEPS Household Component (HC) survey and the MPC survey. Additionally, it includes information on the Medical Organizations Survey (MOS), which was new in the 2015 MPC data year collection and was fielded again in the 2016 MPC. The MOS was funded in part by support from the Robert Wood Johnson Foundation. |
