Description
INSHHANYPRIVATE indicates whether any member of the household is covered by privately purchased commercial health insurance.
The information in INSHHANYPRIVATE is taken from the household record and applies to regular household members, not temporary visitors. 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.
Comparability
Apart from universe differences, INSHHANYPRIVATE has no comparability problems.
