Description

Covered by group health (edited) - 1980-2018

Unicon Corporation made the following notes about this variable:
See chhi=2 for additional coverage of children <15. Includes persons who are not enrolled in group health, but are covered by another household member's policy. See Appendix T.1 for Census defined conversions of new health insurance variables to old. In 2000 this variable was appended from a Census released patch file. The value reflects the results following a new verification item. See zcovgh for the original 2000 value. The 2001 values as released in the Public Use file already incorporate the results of the new verification item (ahiper). See Appendix T.6 for a discussion of these enhanced values.
