Contents Section 1993 Access to Care: Survey Health Insurance
Publish Year 1993
Type Access to Care
Record Type RIC "4"
Number of Records 12,817 - 1 for each person who completed an interview.
Description The Survey Health Insurance file summarizes current health insurance information provided by the sample people. NOTE: To limit the size of the RIC 4 record, only 5 private health insurance policies are detailed. For individuals in the sample that had more than 5 private health insurance policies, the total in the summary indicator is correct, but the number of plans detailed is less than the total. After a comparison of two MCBS files revealed a deviation in the number of health insurance policies held by the survey population, the editing procedures in the Access to Care RIC 4 were changed to include only those health insurance plans that the survey participant is currently enrolled with.
