Abstract:

The NHIS is one of six household surveys that are currently part of the Demographic Data Monitoring System (DDMS), which captures survey responses from interviewer laptops on a daily basis and will frequently load survey cost data as well. Within the DDMS is a component to model survey outcomes and display tabular and graphical output. This paper presents details of the models used to study the effect of the Census Bureau's Regional Office realignment on key estimates of the NHIS, as well as issues encountered in developing the system and interpreting the results.
