    2009 NHAMCS MICRO-DATA FILE DOCUMENTATION PAGE 1 ABSTRACT This material provides documentation for users of the public use micro-data files of the 2009 National Hospital Ambulatory Medical Care Survey (NHAMCS). NHAMCS is a national probability sample survey of visits to hospital outpatient and emergency departments, conducted by the National Center for Health Statistics, Centers for Disease Control and Prevention. The survey is a component of the National Health Care Surveys, which measure health care utilization across a variety of health care providers. There are two micro-data files produced from NHAMCS, one for outpatient department records and one for emergency department records. Section I of this documentation, “Description of the National Hospital Ambulatory Medical Care Survey,” includes information on the scope of the survey, the sample, field activities, data collection procedures, medical coding procedures, and population estimates. Section II provides detailed descriptions of the contents of each file’s data record by location. Section III contains marginal data for selected items on each file. The appendixes contain sampling errors, instructions and definitions for completing the Patient Record forms, and lists of codes used in the survey. PAGE 2 2009 NHAMCS MICRO-DATA FILE DOCUMENTATION SUMMARY OF CHANGES FOR 2009 The 2009 NHAMCS Emergency Department and Outpatient Department public use micro-data files are, for the most part, similar to the 2008 files, but there are some important changes.
