Abstract: NHANES is a major ongoing source of information on the health and nutritional status of the civilian, non-institutionalized population of the United States (U.S.). NHANES collects data from household eligibility through screening; sample person household and family interviews; NHANES examinations and interviews at the Mobile Examination Center (MEC); laboratory assessments; and telephone follow-up interviews and other follow-up activities for 2025-2027. This Non-Substantive Change Request is submitted to edit incentives and extend the collection time. There is no anticipated change to the approved burden.
