Choosing PRPL Records for Your Research Question Sample Clauses

Choosing PRPL Records for Your Research Question. In order to produce estimates from the data in this file, researchers must use the person (or family) level weights released in either of two previously released PUFs, HC-022 or HC-039. Researchers must consult the documentation for these PUFs for guidance on creating nationally representative estimates for different time periods. Note that if there are multiple records per person (DUPERSID) when you merge on weights, you will double count some people, and your estimates will not be nationally representative. There are two solutions: select only one record per person, or aggregate information across PRPL records. How you develop your analytical file depends on your research question. The PRPL file is designed to help answer a wide variety of research questions. AHRQ cannot anticipate all these questions, so this section provides examples of how to use the PRPL file for three research questions. How many people were covered by two or more private hospital/physician insurance plans at the end of 2000? Select the Panel 5 round 3 and Panel 4 round 5 records with PRIVCAT>0 and MSUPINS ne 1 and EVALCOVR=1. Count the number of records for each person (DUPERSID). Create one person- level record for each DUPERSID that has the number of plans (PRPL records). Merge the count variable onto PUF HC-039 and use weights, strata, and PSUs to create nationally representative estimates. How many people reported private dental coverage from an employer at the end of 2000? Select the Panel 5 round 3 and Panel 4 round 5 records with DNTLINS=1 and PRIVCAT in (1,4,5) and EVALCOVR=1. Among these records, select one record for each person (DUPERSID). Merge each record onto PUF HC-039 and use weights, strata, and PSUs to create nationally representative estimates. At the time of the first interview, how many private insurance policies for hospital/physician were not employment-based? Select the Panel 5 round 1 and Panel 4 round 3 records with PRIVCAT in (2, 3, 99) and EVALCOVR=1. Select one record for each policyholder-establishment pair (EPRSIDX). To have a positive weight for the final count, we recommend choosing the covered person record of the policyholder (PHOLDER=1), unless the policyholder is deceased (DECPHLDR=1), in which case then the researcher should choose a different covered person=s record. Merge each record onto PUF HC-022 and use weights, strata, and PSUs to create nationally representative estimates.
