INTRO_SAMP

I would like to discuss a plan for conducting the National Ambulatory Medical Care Survey (NAMCS) to a sample of your providers.  This center has been assigned to a 1-week reporting period that begins on Monday, (Reporting period start date) and ends on Sunday, (Reporting period end date).

I will need to sample 3 providers from your Center.  In order to do this, I will need the name, specialty, and estimated visit volume, corresponding to the sample week, for all physicians and mid-level providers
only at the currently sampled in-scope location.

 Please include all providers even if they do
not plan on seeing patients during the sample week. In-scope locations include all fixed locations that provide health care, including mobile clinics, and specialty clinics. Please do not include providers that work solely at school-based clinics.

Please exclude anesthesiologists, dentists, hygienists, optometrists, pathologists, psychologists, podiatrists, and radiologists.  Please also exclude any interns, residents, or fellows. Include physicians (both MDs and DOs), nurse practitioners (NPs), physician assistants (PAs), and certified nurse midwives (CNMs).

List all providers only from the currently sampled in-scope location, even if they do not expect to see patients during the sampled week.  Enter a zero for the expected visit volume for those providers with no expected visits.   

If the CHC that has been sampled is a health department, please verify that they will not be distributing the 330 grant money to other administratively unconnected community health centers.  If the health department 
does distribute the money to other CHCs, these need to be sampled, so please contact your supervisor for further instructions.
