Workshops and Materials

The Agency for Healthcare Research and Quality (AHRQ) conducts several workshops throughout the year. These workshops provide both practical information about MEPS public use data files and an opportunity to construct analytic files with the assistance of AHRQ staff. The workshops are designed for health services researchers who have a background or interest in using national health surveys. More details about the material presented in MEPS workshops are available in the online workbook and SAS® programming examples.
