Results
1-3 of 3 Resources displayedThe MEPS Household Component fields questionnaires to individual household members to collect nationally representative data on demographic characteristics, health conditions, health status, use of medical care services, charges and payments, access to care, satisfaction with care, health insurance coverage, income, and employment.
Because demographic characteristics are collected in the MEPS-Household Component, health care disparities can be examined for any topics within the MEPS Household Component survey.
This report measures trends in effectiveness of care, patient safety, timeliness of care, patient centeredness, and access to care. The report presents, in chart form, the latest available findings on quality of and access to health care.
