χ 2 tests examined the association of statin use with individual patient visit characteristics for combined 1995–2002 NAMCS and NHAMCS data.
Our analysis focused on domains of data that were consistently collected in both NAMCS and NHAMCS for the time period 1992–2002, including patient demographic and geography characteristics, reasons for visit (up to three), diagnoses (up to three), new and continuing medications (up to five in 1992–1994 and six in 1995–2002), and lifestyle counseling services provided or ordered at the visit.
Between 1992 and 2002, annual participation rates among physicians selected for NAMCS averaged 70%, while the participation rate in NHAMCS by selected hospitals with outpatient departments was 90%.
Despite the acknowledged limitations, NAMCS and NHAMCS cover a longer consecutive time span and provide more complete information about disease-specific physician activities than many other national data bases, e.g., the Medical Expenditures Panel Survey, the National Health Assessment Nutrition Examination Survey, and the National Health Interview Survey.
Although both NAMCS and NHAMCS are designed to produce nationally representative estimates, these estimates are not linked to individuals but to patient visits.
