Longitudinal Data files
Most variables on this file were obtained from the MEPS 2012 and 2013 Full-Year Consolidated Files (above). However, names for time dependent variables from these files were modified in order to: 1) eliminate duplicate variable names for data reflecting different time periods during the panel, and 2) standardize variable names to facilitate pooling of multiple MEPS panels for analysis.

Appendix to MEPS Event files
This public use data set consists of two data files containing variables for linkage of the MEPS 2013 event-level data files; i.e., the condition-event linkage file (CLNK) and PMED-event linkage file (RXLK).
- Condition-Event Link File (CLNK)

| CONDIDX | The ID that uniquely identifies each condition for a person and corresponds to a unique record on the MEPS 2013 Conditions file, HC-162. There may be more than one record on the CLNK file for a specific CONDIDX value. | |
| EVNTIDX | 12-digit number that uniquely identifies each event for a person and corresponds to a unique record on one of the MEPS 2013 event files, HC-160B through HC-160H. (EVNTIDX is not included on the 2013 Prescribed Medicines event file, HC-160A; rather, on this file the variable for linking with EVNTIDX on the CLNK file is LINKIDX.) There may be more than one record on the CLNK file for a specific EVNTIDX value. | |
| CLNKIDX | 24-digit number that uniquely identifies each record on the CLNK file and is the combination of CONDIDX + EVNTIDX. There is just one record on this file for each value of CLNKIDX, i.e., each unique combination of CONDIDX + EVNTIDX. | |

| PANEL | Constructed variable used to specify the panel number for the interview in which the condition was reported. | Panel 17 or Panel 18. |
- Prescribed Medicines-Event Link File (RXLK)
| VARIABLE | DESCRIPTION | VALUES |
|---|---|---|
| DUPERSID | uniquely identifies each person represented on the file. There may be more than one record on the RXLK file for a specific DUPERSID value | |
| EVNTIDX | 12-digit number that uniquely identifies each event for a person and corresponds to a unique record on one of the MEPS 2013 event files, HC-160B through HC-160G. There may be more than one record on the RXLK file for a specific EVNTIDX value. | |
| LINKIDX | 12-digit number that identifies the record(s) on the prescribed medicines file, HC-160A that link to an event record. There may be more than one record on the RXLK file for a specific LINKIDX value, and there may be more than one record on the HC-160A file for a specific LINKIDX value. | |
| RXLKIDX | 24-digit number that uniquely identifies each record on the RXLK file, and is the combination of EVNTIDX + LINKIDX. There is just one record on this file for each value of RXLKIDX, i.e., each unique combination of EVNTIDX + LINKIDX. | |
| EVENTYPE | Indicates the type of event record identified by EVNTIDX | 1 = MVIS – office-based medical provider visit event contained on MEPS release HC-160G; 2 = OPAT – outpatient department visit event contained on MEPS release HC-160F; 3 = EROM – emergency room visit event contained on MEPS release HC-160E; 4 = STAZ – inpatient hospital stay event contained on MEPS release HC-160D; 5 = DVIS – dental visit event contained on MEPS release HC-160B |
| PANEL | Constructed variable used to specify the panel number for the interview in which the condition was reported. | Panel 17 or Panel 18 |
NHEA-Aligned MEPS Projected Expenditure Data Files
Data from the 2002 MEPS aligned with the 2002 National Health Expenditure Accounts and projected annually through 2016.
- Variable List:
| VARIABLE | DESCRIPTION |
|---|---|
| DUPERIDX | Person identification number on Projected files |
| PERWTP | NHEA-aligned MEPS person weight on the Base 2002 NHEA-Aligned MEPS file (This variable appears only on the 2002 Base file) |
| WTADJyy | NHEA-aligned MEPS person weight adjusted to end year YY for population growth (This variable does not appear on the 2002 Base file) |
| AGESTUB | Age in years, top-coded at 85 |
| RACE7 | Seven category race variable |
| SEX | Sex |
| INSCOV_A | Insurance status for individuals under age 65 - annual measure |
| INSCOV_B | Insurance/Medicaid status for individuals age 65 and over - annual measure |
| POVCAT | Poverty status based on annual family income |
| PRVHMO | HMO status for those with private health insurance – had private HMO or managed care plan during the year |
| MCDHMO | HMO status for those with Medicaid, SCHIP or other public (excluding Champus) health insurance – had Medicaid, SCHIP or other public HMO or managedare plan during the year |
| TOSSOPyy | Expenditures by type of service and source of payment 80 categories |
- Key expenditure and control variables
| VARIABLE | DESCRIPTION | VALUES |
|---|---|---|
| DUPERIDX | Unique person identification number for each individual on the NHEA-aligned MEPS file and on each Projected NHEA-aligned MEPS file. This variable cannot be used to link individuals across years and cannot be used | |
| PERWTP | 2002 person weight from the NHEA-aligned MEPS file. This variable appears only on the 2002 Base file, it does not appear on any of the projected year files. | |
| WTADJyy | 2002 person weight from NHEA-aligned MEPS file, adjusted to end year YY for population, mortality and fertility growth. These weights allow researchers to get national level population estimates. Researchers should be careful when sub-setting by control variables. Un-weighted cell sizes must be greater than 100 individuals to obtain nationally representative estimates. Cell sizes can get very small when using variables such as age (especially when using single year categories). This variable does not appear on the 2002 Base file, only on the projected year files. | |
| AGESTUB | Age of individual as of Dec. 31, 19yy. Note: A similar age variable used for population re-weighting was top-coded at 100. The variable released | |
| on this file is more restrictive for confidentiality purposes. | Age in years from 0 to 85, top-coded at 85. | |
| RACE7 | Race of individual, used for population re-weighting. | 1 = Hispanic; 2 = White alone, Non-Hispanic; 3 = Black alone, Non-Hispanic; 4 = American Indian or Alaskan Native alone, Non-Hispanic; 5 = Asian alone, Non-Hispanic; 6 = Native Hawaiian or Other Pacific Islander alone, Non-Hispanic; 7 = Two or more races, Non-Hispanic |
| SEX | Sex of individual, used for population re-weighting adjustment | 1 = Male; 2 = Female |
| TOSSOPyy | Medical expenditure variables by type of service and source of payment. The variable contains actual expenditure amount in dollars. Each year there are 80 variables covered by the type of service and source of payment categories. See section 2 for detailed information on the naming convention of these variables. |
- Additional variables, not statistically controlled for in aging
| VARIABLE | DESCRIPTION | VALUES |
|---|---|---|
| INSCOV_A | Insurance status for individuals under age 65. (AGESTUB < 65) This variable is an annual measure, measuring whether the individual had insurance at any point during the year. Because individuals can have coverage from multiple health insurance sources, this variable is built hierarchically. All individuals ages 65 and over, regardless of insurance status, are placed in category 5; INSCOV_B will measure insurance status for these individuals. Note: Employment related private insurance in category 1 does not include self employed persons with firm size of 1 who purchase health insurance for themselves. These individuals would be assigned, instead, to category 2. | 1 = Any Private, employment related or TRICARE insurance during the year; 2 = Any Private, not employment related insurance during the year; 3 = Any Public (Medicaid, SCHIP or Medicare) insurance during the year; 4 = Uninsured for entire year; 5 = Age 65 or older |
| INSCOV_B | Insurance/Medicaid/Medicare status for individuals age 65 and over. (AGESTUB >= 65) This variable is an annual measure, measuring whether the individual had insurance at any point during the year. Because individuals can have coverage from multiple health insurance sources, this variable is built hierarchically. Several categories of this variable are intended to measure whether individuals held multiple coverage sources at the same time. For example, category 3 includes an individual who was covered by both Medicare and a privately purchased policy in the month of February but does not include someone who was covered only by a privately purchased policy in January and covered only by Medicare in March. This second individual would fit in category 4. Note: Employer insurance in category 2 does not include persons who were self employed with firm size of 1 who had purchased health insurance for themselves. These individuals would be assigned, instead, to category 3. | -1 = inapplicable (under age 65); 1 = Held both Medicaid and Medicare at the same time during the year; 2 = Held both Medicare and Employment related Private insurance at the same time during the year; 3 = Held both Medicare and Non-Employment related Private insurance at the same time during the year; 4 = Held Medicare alone during the year; 5 = Held no Medicare during the year |
| POVCAT | Poverty status based on annual family income. | 1 = less than 1.00 times poverty line; 2 = 1.01 to 1.24 times poverty line; 3 = 1.25 to 1.99 times poverty line; 4 = 2.0 to 3.99 times poverty line; 5 = 4.00 or more times poverty line |
| PRVHMO | Individual was enrolled in a private HMO or managed care plan during the year. | 1 = yes; 2 = no |
| MCDHMO | Individual was enrolled in a Medicaid, SCHIP or other public HMO or managed care plan during the year. | 1 = yes; 2 = no |
Abbreviations:
