  • Health Statistics

Background:

  • The National Health Interview Survey (NHIS) is a critical source of national health statistics.
  • Annual data collection provides insights into the health status of the U.S. civilian noninstitutionalized population.
  • Understanding health trends is essential for public health policy and resource allocation.

Purpose of the Study:

  • To present national estimates on acute and chronic conditions, disability days, and healthcare utilization.
  • To analyze trends in health statistics from 1982 to 1996.
  • To provide data on medically attended conditions and activity limitations.
