Question Text

Medicare refers to the Federal health insurance coverage for persons 65+ years of age
and certain disabled persons under 65.
NHIS data have been linked with health-related records of government agencies such
as the Centers for Medicare and Medicaid Services and the Social Security
Administration. NHIS data have also been linked with death certificate data stored in
the National Death Index (NDI). The NDI is a database of death certificate information
provided to NCHS by State offices.
All personal identifying information is removed from the linked data files.
These are some examples of possible research studies using NHIS data together with
other health-related records or the NDI:
[blt] Predicting the number of disabled persons in the U.S. based on health conditions
reported in the NHIS.
[blt] Predicting the costs of Medicare based on health conditions reported in the NHIS.
[blt] Studying the risk of certain diseases for persons with and without health insurance.
[blt] Studying the health characteristics of people who retire early.
[blt] Calculating how long a person in the U.S. might live, based on his or her education,
income, or race and ethnicity.

Indicate both a general and specific function for employers and businesses. For
example, in "copper mine" the word "mine" is general and the word "copper" is specific.
For Government Agencies: If the title clearly designates the main function of the
agency, enter the name of the agency (e.g., the U.S. Census Bureau.) If the main
function is not clear from the title, ask for and report the division or branch for which the
person works.
For Firms with more than one business: If activities are carried on in separate places,
describe the business in which the person actually worked. If activities are carried on in
the same place, describe the main activity.
For household or domestic workers: Determine if the person works for a business or
private home. If it is a business, enter the name of the business. If it is a private home,
enter "private home".
Manufacturing: Makes and sells its products in large lots to other manufacturers,
wholesalers, or retailers.
Wholesale trade: Buys products in large quantities for resale to retailers, industrial
users, or to other wholesalers.
Retail trade: Sells primarily to individual consumers and seldom makes products.
Some other kinds of business: Any other type of establishment that renders a service to
individuals and/or organizations. Examples are hotels, dry cleaners, advertising
agencies, restaurants, and automobile repair shops.

Workers’ compensation is also known as “workers’ comp” or “workmans’ comp”. It is a
form of insurance, paid for by employers, that provides payment for medical care and
disability for employees who are injured or become ill in the course of their
employment. Filing a workers’ compensation claim means that you reported the
condition to your employer and paperwork was submitted for you to receive insurance
payments for your medical expenses and/or lost wages due to your work-related
condition.

Days in bed are any days during which the sample adult stayed in bed MORE than half
of the day because of illness or injury. "More than half of the day" is defined as more
than half of the hours that the sample adult is usually awake. Count as days in bed all
days a sample adult spent as an overnight patient in a hospital, sanitarium, nursing
home, etc., whether or not the patient was actually lying in bed, even if there was no
illness or injury.
A bed is anything used for lying down or sleeping, including a sofa, cot or mattress.
Always probe for an exact number. If the sample adult reports a range or interval,
assist the sample adult in making an estimate by probing. For example, you might ask
"Could you give me a more exact number?"

Question Text

"Problem" is the sample adult's perception of a departure from physical, mental or
emotional well-being. This incudes specific health problems, such as a disease or
condition, a missing extremity or organ, or any type of impairment. It also includes
more vague disorders not always thought of as health related problems or illnesses
such as alcoholism, drug dependency or reaction, senility, depression, retardation, etc.
"Special Equipment" is any device, tool, utensil, instrument, implement, etc., used as an
aid in performing an activity because of a physical, mental or emotional problem. This
incudes the use of adult "diapers" for incontinence. For example: a spoon is not
normally considered as "special equipment"; however, a uniquely designed or
functioning one used for eating by a person because of
physical, mental, or emotional problems is considered "special equipment."

Difficult is respondent defined.
"Problem" is the sample adult's perception of a departure from physical, mental or

more vague disorders not always thought of as health related problems or illnesses

"Special Equipment" is any device, tool, utensil, instrument, implement, etc., used as an

"Difficult" is respondent defined.

There are currently two types of tetanus shots available today. One is the Td or
tetanus-diphtheria vaccine and the other is called Tdap or Adacel (trademark) or

shot, did your health care provider tell you or did the vaccine information sheet say the
vaccine included the pertussis or whooping cough vaccine? The shot is often called
Tdap or ADACEL (trademark) or BOOSTRIX (trademark).

Question Text

The next question is about electronic cigarettes or e-cigarettes. You may also know
them as vape-pens, hookah-pens, e-hookahs, or e-vaporizers. Some look like
cigarettes, and others look like pens or small pipes. These are battery-powered,
usually contain liquid nicotine, and produce vapor instead of smoke.
Have you EVER used an e-cigarette EVEN ONE TIME?
*Read if necessary: E-cigarettes and similar products can be bought as one-time,
disposable products, as re-usable kits with a cartridge, or with refillable chambers.
These usually contain a liquid, often called an “e-liquid” or “e-juice.” Popular brands
include NJOY, BLU, LOGIC, and VUSE.

Question Text

? [F1]
Now, we are going to ask you about your skin's reaction to the sun. After several
months of not being in the sun very much, if you went out in the sun for an hour without
sunscreen, a hat, or protective clothing, which one of these best describes what would
happen to your skin? (*Read choices 1-5 only)
*Read if necessary: Even if you did not go out in the sun, what would happen if you
did? Use the most recent experience. If none, then think about the past.
*By "sunburn" we mean even a small part of your skin turns red or hurts for 12 hours or
more.

Answer Codes

1. Get a severe sunburn with blisters
2. Have a moderate sunburn with peeling
3. Burn mildly with some or no darkening/tanning
4. Turn darker without sunburn
5. Nothing would happen to my skin

Question Text

There are several different kinds of tests to check for colon cancer. Colonoscopy
(colon-OS-copy) and sigmoidoscopy (sigmoid-OS-copy) are exams in which a doctor
inserts a tube into the rectum to look for polyps or cancer. For a colonoscopy, the
doctor checks the entire colon, and you are given medication through a needle in your
arm to make you sleepy, and told to have someone drive you home. For a
Sigmoidoscopy, the doctor checks only part of the colon and you are fully awake.
Have you EVER HAD a colonoscopy?
*Read if necessary:
A polyp is a small growth that develops on the inside of the colon or rectum.
Before these tests, you are asked to take a medication that causes diarrhea.

Question Text

CT colonography, sometimes called virtual colonoscopy, is a new type of test that looks
for cancer in the colon. Unlike regular colonoscopies, you do not need medication to
make you sleepy during the test. In this new test, your colon is filled with air and you are
moved through a donut-shaped X-ray machine as you lie on your back and then your
stomach.
Before today, HAD YOU EVER HEARD of CT colonography or virtual colonoscopy?
*Read if necessary:
This is not the same as a colonoscopy or a sigmoidoscopy.
Unlike CT tests for other purposes, you DO take laxatives to clean out your colon for
this test.

blood stool or occult blood test, or fecal immunochemical or FIT test, tests to determine
whether you have blood in your stool or bowel movement. These tests can be done at
home using a kit. You use a stick or brush to obtain a small amount of stool at home
and send it back to the doctor or lab.

The following questions refer to genetic testing for cancer risk. That is, testing your
blood to see if you carry genes which may predict a greater chance of developing
cancer at some point in your life. This does NOT include tests to determine if you have
cancer now. Do NOT include self-testing kits administered at home.
Have you EVER DISCUSSED the possibility of getting a genetic test for cancer risk
with a doctor or other health professional?
