The next set of questions is about INJURIES AND POISONINGS. People can be
injured or poisoned unexpectedly, accidentally or on purpose. They may have hurt
themselves or others may have caused them to be hurt.
DURING THE PAST THREE MONTHS, that is since [fill 1: date (91 days before
today's date)], [fill 2: did you/did you or anyone in your family] have an injury where
any part of [fill 3: your/the] body was hurt, for example, with a [fill 4: (random set of

Formula for fill4= ?

Special Instructions 1. A random set of four injury examples (from a list of 10 sets) will be inserted into the
question text. The list of 10 example sets will be provided to the section author as
separate documentation. To ensure that the same list is used for a family when backups or break-offs occur, we suggest something like this:
IF (LISTNUM = a number) select a number between 1 and 10 at random, assign
LISTNUM that number,
and read list LISTNUM; ELSE read list LISTNUM. When FINJ3M is reached for the
first time, LISTNUM is assigned a number between 1 and 10. It will not be assigned a
different list number if the interviewer returns to FINJ3M, because LISTNUM will never
again be equal to zero for that case.

Question Text

1. A [b]private health insurance plan[b] is any type of health insurance, including
Health Maintenance Organizations (HMOs), other than the programs in categories (2)
and (4-10). These plans may be provided in part or full by the person's employer or
union, or may be purchased directly by the individual.
2. [b] Medicare[b] refers to the Federal health insurance coverage for persons 65+
years of age and certain disabled persons under 65 years of age. [b]Medicare
Managed Care or Medicare + Choice[b] is a way of receiving your Medicare benefits.
These types of plans involve specific groups of doctors, hospitals, and other health
care providers who have agreed to provide care to Medicare beneficiaries in
exchange for a fixed payment from Medicare every month. In these plans, a person
must receive all of their care from the Medicare managed care plan, except for
emergencies.
3. [b]Medigap[b] insurance (also called Medicare Supplement Insurance, Medsup and
Medicare Select) is a private health insurance policy which provides reimbursement
for the out-of-pocket costs that are not covered by Medicare (for example:
prescription drugs, hearing aids, and foot care). There are ten standard Medigap
policies (A through J).
4. [b] Medicaid[b] refers to a medical assistance program that provides health care
coverage to low income and disabled persons. The Medicaid program is a joint
federal-state program which is administered by the states. In some states the
Medicaid programs have distinct names.
5. [b]Children's Health Insurance Program[b] (also called [b]SCHIP[b] or [b]CHIP[b])
refers to a joint federal and state program, administered by each state that offers
health care coverage to low-income, uninsured children. The program has recently
expanded in some states to include low income adults as well. This law was passed
in 1997. In some states, CHIP programs have distinct names.
6. [b]Military health care[b] includes health care available to active duty personnel
and their dependents ([b]TRICARE[b]) as well as [b]VA[b] (Veterans Administration)
which provides medical assistance to veterans of the Armed Forces, particularly those
with service-connected ailments and [b]CHAMP-VA[b] (Comprehensive Health and
Medical Plan of the Veterans Administration) provides health care for the spouse,
dependents, or survivors of a veteran who has a total, permanent service-connected
disability. TRICARE is a regionally managed health care program for active duty and
retired members of the uniformed services, their families, and survivors.
[b]TRICARE[b] offers eligible beneficiaries four choices for their health care:
TRICARE Prime, TRICARE Extra, TRICARE Standard and TRICARE for life.
TRICARE Standard is the new name for traditional [b]CHAMPUS[b] (Comprehensive
Health and Medical Plan for the Uniformed Services).
6. [b]Military health care[b] includes:

[b]TRICARE[b] - a regionally managed health care program for active duty and
retired members of the uniformed services, their families, and survivors. TRICARE
offers eligible beneficiaries four choices for their health care: TRICARE Prime,
TRICARE Extra, TRICARE Standard and TRICARE for life. TRICARE Standard is the
new name for traditional CHAMPUS (Comprehensive Health and Medical Plan for the
Uniformed Services).
[b]VA[b] (Veterans Administration) - provides medical assistance to veterans of the
Armed Forces, particularly those with service-connected ailments.
[b]CHAMP-VA[b] (Comprehensive Health and Medical Plan of the Veterans
Administration) - provides health care for the spouse, dependents, or survivors of a

7. [b]Indian Health Service[b] is the Federal health care program for Native Americans.
8. [b]State-sponsored health plan[b] refers to any other health care coverage run by a
specific state, including public assistance programs other than "Medicaid" that pay for
health care.
9. [b]Other Government Program[b] is a catch-all category for any public program
providing health care coverage other than those programs in categories 2, and 4-8.
10. [b]Single Service Plans[b] A Single Service Plan (SSP) is designed to provide
coverage for a specific type of service/care. This plan is usually limited to one type of
service or treatment for a specific condition and is frequently obtained to supplement
a comprehensive plan that may not provide that type of service. Examples of SSPs
are dental care, vision care, prescriptions, nursing home care, hospice care,
accidents, catastrophic care, cancer treatment, AIDS care, and/or hospitalization.

[b]Medicare Managed Care[b] is a way of receiving your Medicare benefits. These
types of plans involve specific groups of doctors, hospitals, and other health care
providers who have agreed to provide care to Medicare beneficiaries in exchange for
a fixed payment from Medicare every month. In these plans, a person must receive all
of their care from the Medicare managed care plan, except for emergencies.
[b]Health Maintenance Organization (HMO)[b] is a health care plan that delivers
comprehensive, coordinated medical services to enrolled members on a prepaid basis.
There are three basic types of HMOs:
1) Group/Staff HMO delivers services at one or more locations through a group of
physicians that contracts with the HMO to provide care or through its own physicians
who are employees of the HMO.
2) An Individual Practice Association (IPA) makes contractual arrangements with
doctors in the community, who treat HMO members out of their own offices.
3) Network HMO contracts with two or more group practices to provide health services.
Other managed care arrangements that may be available through Medicare include:
HMO's with Point of Service Options (POS), Provider sponsored Organizations
(PSO's), and Preferred Provider Organizations (PPO's).

Question Text

A private health insurance plan may be provided in part or full by the persons'
employer or union, may be purchased directly by the individual, or may be provided
through a state or local government or community program.
A private health insurance plan through a state or local government program or
community program is a type of private insurance for which state or local government
or community effort pays part or all of the cost of a private insurance plan, such as
Blue Cross/Blue Shield. The individual may also contribute to the cost of the health
insurance and may receive a card such as a Blue Cross/Blue Shield card.
A community program or effort may include a variety of mechanisms to achieve health
insurance for persons who would otherwise be uninsured. An example would be a
private company giving a grant to an HMO to pay for health insurance coverage.

Question Text

[b]HMO[b] - Health Maintenance Organizations are health delivery systems that offer
comprehensive health coverage for hospital and physician services for a prepaid,
fixed fee.
[b]IPA[b] - type of HMO which contracts directly with physicians in independent
practices, and/or contracts with one or more associations of physicians in independent
practices, or multi-specialties. The plan is predominantly organized around
solo/single practices.
[b]PPO[b] - Preferred Provider Organizations are a form of managed care although
not a "traditional" HMO. Enrollees in PPOs are encouraged to use designated or
"preferred" health providers. Financial incentives for individuals include lower
payments or coinsurance and maximum limits on out-of-pocket costs for in-network
use. PPOs are less restrictive than HMO's in that visits to specialists are not
dependent on the authorization by a member’s primary care physician. Unlike HMOs,
out-of-network usage is allowed by PPOs though at a higher cost to enrollee.
[b]POS[b] - Point-of-Service plans are a form of managed care although not a
"traditional" HMO. POS plans allow for "opt-out" or out-of-network coverage, but
accompanied by strong economic incentives to the enrollees to use network providers.
POS plans generally use gatekeepers for referrals to specialists in the network. It is
this attribute that most readily distinguishes a POS plan from a PPO.
[b]Fee-for-Service[b] - This is the traditional kind of health care policy. Insurance
companies pay fees for the services provided to the insured people covered by the
policy. This type of health insurance offers the most choices of doctors and hospitals.
You can choose any doctor you wish and change doctors any time. You can go to any
hospital in any part of the country. With fee-for-service, the insurer only pays for part
of your doctor and hospital bills. A fee-for-service plan pays for covered services after
services have been received.

tax-deductible deposits, tax deferred interest earned on the account, tax-free
withdrawals for qualified medical expenses, carryover of unused funds and interest
from year to year, and portability. A HSA qualified insurance policy must have a
deductible of at least $1300 for individuals and $2600 for families.
[b]Health Reimbursable Agreement[b] - A Health Reimbursable Agreement or HRA is
an account that is used to pay for medical expenses. HRAs are an employer-funded
account with the following features: tax free withdrawals for qualified medical
expenses, carryover of unused credits from year to year, credits in a HRA do not earn
interest, credits in a HRA are forfeited if health insurance plan is switched.

[fill 1: Do you/Does anyone in your family] have a Flexible Spending Account for
health expenses? These accounts are offered by some employers to allow employees
to set aside pre-tax dollars of their own money for their use throughout the year to
reimburse themselves for their out-of-pocket expenses for health care. With this type
of account, any money remaining in the account at the end of the year, following a
short grace period, is lost to the employee.

Question Text

[b]Flexible Spending Accounts (FSAs)[b] - Health care flexible spending accounts are
employer-established benefit plans that reimburse employees for specified medical
expenses as they are incurred. These accounts are allowed under section 125 of the
Internal Revenue Code. The employee contributes funds to the account through a
salary reduction agreement and is able to withdraw the funds set aside to pay for
medical bills. The salary reduction agreement means that any funds set aside in a
FSA escape both income tax and Social Security tax. Employers may contribute to
these accounts as well.
Once the amount of contribution has been designated during an open enrollment
period that occurs once each year, the employee is not allowed to change the amount
or drop out of the FSA during the year unless he or she experiences a change in
family status. By law, the employee forfeits any unspent funds in the account at the
end of the year other than the 2.5-month grace period. There is no requirement to
have a private health insurance plan with a FSA.

Question Text

SSI pays monthly benefits to aged, disabled, and blind people who have limited
income and assets, regardless of age. A person may be eligible for SSI payments
even if they have never worked.
SSI is NOT the same as Social Security. A person can get SSI in addition to Social
Security.
The SSI program is issued by the Social Security Administration. Each state may add
to the Federal payment from its own funds. This additional money may be included in
the federal payment or it may be received as a separate check. If it is combined with
the Federal payment, the words "STATE PAYMENT INCLUDED" will appear on the
Federal check. A few states make SSI payments to individuals who do not receive a
Federal payment.

indicate in PCHLDSP the line number OF THE CHILD for whom the money was
intended. Although the mother may have received the money, it was only received
because of a child or children.
