Summary:

The Survey of American Indians and Alaska Natives (SAIAN) is one of three major components of the 1987 National Medical Expenditure Survey (NMES). (The other two components are the Household Survey and the Institutional Population Component.) The SAIAN was designed in collaboration with the Indian Health Service (IHS), and used the same data collection instruments, interview procedures, and time frame as the Household Survey component. However, the SAIAN differed from the Household Survey in several respects. The SAIAN sample was interviewed only three times and was not given the supplements on long-term care, caregiving, and care-receiving. Also, SAIAN respondents were asked additional questions on topics such as use of IHS facilities and traditional medicine, and were given a modified self-administered questionnaire with separate versions for adults and children. Interviewers for the SAIAN were mainly American Indians or Alaska Natives, and about 40 percent of the interviews were conducted entirely in the native language of the respondent. Public Use Tape 11 contains person-level data from Round 1 only, focusing on demographics, household composition, employment, and health insurance.... Cf.: http://dx.doi.org/10.3886/ICPSR09689
