As I mentioned earlier, this is [your/(SP's)] final interview with this study. We have learned much from
[your/(SP's)] participation in the MCBS. Data from the study have already been used to inform Congress of
the problems Medicare beneficiaries might face regarding their access to health care. [Your/(SP's)]
participation in this study has given the United States government a much clearer picture of [your/(SP's)]
health care needs and those of more than 42 million Medicare participants.
I thank you sincerely for all the time and effort that you have put into this study. You have made a very
important contribution to the Medicare program and all of its beneficiaries by sharing [your/(SP's)] health
care experiences with us. Even though [you/(SP)] will no longer be a participant in our survey, [your/(SP's)]
health care needs will continue to be covered through the Medicare program. I'd like to express to [you/you
and (SP)] appreciation on behalf of the Centers for Medicare and Medicaid Services. Both NORC at the
University of Chicago and the Centers for Medicare and Medicaid Services wish [you/you and (SP)] the very
best for the future.
[RESPONDENT MAY KEEP THE CALENDAR]
