Update Notes
MEPS HC-034: 2001 P5R3/P6R1 Population Characteristics
Update #3: 11/22/13
SPSS and STATA Programming Statements have been added.
Update #2: 02/28/03
The
Medicaid variables--MCAID13 and MCAID13X--also include those
identified as covered by State Children's Health Insurance Program
(SCHIP).
Update #1: 08/29/02
The marital status variable
in the HC-034 file documentation has been updated to clarify the
procedure for coding rounds. This correction in the documentation
did not affect the data, thus there has been no change to the data
file. The clarification for this variable is as follows:
"When marital status was missing
in the preceding round and provided in the current round, then
the person was coded to the "in round" marital state. For example,
if marital status was not available from the National Health Interview
Survey, and the person's marital status was reported as married
in round 1 of MEPS, then the person would be coded as "7 married
in round" for round 1 of MEPS."
