Household Component The Medical Expenditure Panel Survey (MEPS) provides nationally representative estimates of health care use, expenditures, sources of payment, and health insurance coverage for the U.S. civilian non-institutionalized population. The MEPS Household Component (HC) also provides estimates of respondents’ health status, demographic and socio-economic characteristics, employment, access to care, and satisfaction with health care. Estimates can be produced for individuals, families, and selected population subgroups. The panel design of the survey, which includes 5 Rounds of interviews covering 2 full calendar years, provides data for examining person level changes in selected variables such as expenditures, health insurance coverage, and health status. Using computer assisted personal interviewing (CAPI) technology, information about each household member is collected, and the survey builds on this information from interview to interview. All data for a sampled household are reported by a single household respondent. The MEPS-HC was initiated in 1996. Each year a new panel of sample households is selected. Because the data collected are comparable to those from earlier medical expenditure surveys conducted in 1977 and 1987, it is possible to analyze long-term trends. Each annual MEPS-HC sample size is about 15,000 households. Data can be analyzed at either the person or event level. Data must be weighted to produce national estimates. The set of households selected for each panel of the MEPS HC is a subsample of households participating in the previous year’s National Health Interview Survey (NHIS) conducted by the National Center for Health Statistics. The NHIS sampling frame provides a nationally representative sample of the U.S. civilian non-institutionalized population and reflects an oversample of blacks and Hispanics. In 2006, the NHIS implemented a new sample design, which included Asian persons in addition to households with black and Hispanic persons in the oversampling of minority populations. MEPS further oversamples additional policy relevant sub- groups such as low income households. The linkage of the MEPS to the previous year’s NHIS provides additional data for longitudinal analytic purposes.
Product Recall (a) If a recall is required by applicable Law, or if Buyer or Supplier reasonably determines that a recall is advisable because the goods may create a potential safety hazard, are not in compliance with any applicable code, standard or legal requirement, or contain a defect or non-conformance with the requirements of this Order occurring or likely to occur in multiple goods, which such defects or non-conformances are substantially similar or have substantially similar causes or effects (collectively a “Serial Defect”), the parties shall promptly communicate such facts to each other. At Buyer’s request, Supplier shall promptly develop a corrective action plan satisfactory to Buyer, which shall include all actions required to recall and/or repair the goods and any actions required by applicable Law (“Corrective Action Plan”) for Buyer’s review and approval. At Buyer’s election, Xxxxx may develop the Corrective Action Plan. In no event shall Buyer and Supplier’s failure to agree on the Corrective Action Plan delay the timely notification of a potential safety hazard, non-compliance or Serial Defect to users of the goods, cause either party to be non-compliant with applicable Law or prevent Buyer from taking reasonable actions to prevent injury or damage to persons, equipment or other property. Supplier and Buyer shall cooperate with and assist each other in any corrective actions and/or filings, if applicable.
