Abstract:	This project, funded by the Office of the Assistant Secretary for Planning and Evaluation (ASPE) and carried out by the National Center for Health Statistics (NCHS), develops and evaluates an integrated survey mechanism to collect broad state-based health and human services data. It also evaluates the quality and utility of state-level estimates developed from telephone surveys alone and in conjunction with estimates obtained from the National Health Interview Survey (NHIS). A variety of health and human services data estimates for a selected number of states (three or four) will be obtained through a telephone interview survey based on the NHIS questionnaire and selected supplemental data.
