Description
INSHHANYEMPLOYER indicates whether any member of the household is covered by an employment-based health insurance plan.

Researchers may wish to exclude visitors using the RESIDENT variable (with visitors coded "2") when women, children, or births are the unit of analysis, and using the HHRESIDENT variable when household members are the unit of analysis.
