NCHS-Social Security Administration (SSA) Linkage


NCHS has developed a record linkage program designed to maximize the scientific value of the Center's population-based surveys. NCHS is currently linking various NCHS surveys with the Retirement, Survivors and Disability Insurance (RSDI) and Supplemental Security Income (SSI) benefit records collected from the Social Security Administration (SSA). Linkage of the NCHS survey participants with the SSA-RSDI and SSA-SSI data provides the opportunity to further study the elderly and disabled U.S. population.
