Employers and Other Establishments. The type of establishment providing coverage (TYPEFLAG) is on the record. This variable is the source for types of establishments providing coverage that is not through an employer (HX03 and HX23). TYPEFLAG reflects the type of establishment when the establishment was first reported, but it is not necessarily updated. For example, users must link to the jobs file to obtain information on employees who left their job since the interview in which the employer was first reported (see section 3.6). For employment-based coverage through both an employer and a union (such as insurance through a labor-management committee), information about only one of the establishments, usually the employer, is on the record. (These cases are identifiable through the PROVDINS variable on the JOBS file.)
Employers and Other Establishments. The type of establishment providing coverage (TYPEFLAG) is on the record. For employment- based coverage through both an employer and a union (such as insurance through a labor- management committee), information about only one of the establishments, usually the employer, is on the record. (These cases are identifiable through the PROVDINS variable on the JOBS file.)
Employers and Other Establishments. The type of establishment providing coverage (TYPEFLAG) is on the record. This variable is the source for types of establishments providing employer-based and non-employer-based, private coverage. In this file, TYPEFLAG includes the answers to HX03 and HX23. TYPEFLAG reflects the type of establishment when the establishment was first reported, but it is not necessarily updated. For example, users must link to the jobs file to obtain information on employees who left their job since the interview in which the employer was first reported (see Section 3.6). For employment-based coverage through both an employer and a union (such as insurance through a labor-management committee), information about only one of the establishments, usually the employer, is on the record. (These cases are identifiable through the PROVDINS variable on the JOBS file.) As of Panel 14 Round 5 and Panel 15 Round 3, “High Risk Pool” (TYPEFLAG = 20) was added to the list of sources of coverage at HX03 and HX23, where information is collected about purchased insurance associated with a self-employed job and firm-size = 1, and privately purchased health insurance not obtained through an employer. Note that through Panel 12 Round 1, ‘Health Insurance Purchasing Alliance’ was a source of coverage in HX03 (PURCHTYP = 4). Through Panel 12 Round 2, it was also a source of coverage at HX23 (PRIVINS = 2). It was removed as a source in subsequent rounds because it is ambiguous. No records created in subsequent panels will show ‘Health Insurance Purchasing Alliance’ as a source of coverage. Note that when TYPEFLAG has a value of 10, “spouse/deceased spouse,” and the spouse resides in the RU, and the respondent selects the spouse as the policyholder at HP11, then the policyholder’s ID is the spouse’s ID.

For employment-based coverage through both an employer and a union (such as insurance through a labor-management committee), for most cases, only the coverage record through the employer establishment is retained. These cases are identifiable through the PROVDINS variable on the JOBS File. In some cases, the union and employer may provide different types of coverage. It is important for researchers to review coverage type variables - HOSPINSX, MSUPINSX, PMEDINS, DENTLINS, VISIONIN, and COBRA - to determine which establishment would be most helpful in answering analytic questions.

Note that when TYPEFLAG has a value of 10, “spouse’s/deceased spouse’s previous employer,” and the spouse resides in the RU, and the respondent selects the spouse as the policyholder at HP11, then the policyholder’s ID is the spouse’s ID.

This rarely used response option was removed because it is now ambiguous. Note that when TYPEFLAG has a value of 10, “spouse/deceased spouse,” and the spouse resides in the RU, and the respondent selects the spouse as the policyholder at HP11, then the policyholder’s ID is the spouse’s ID.
