Mortality Experience of the 1986–2000 National Health Interview Survey Linked Mortality Files Participants

Details

• Description:
  The National Center for Health Statistics (NCHS) has produced the 1986–2000 National Health interview Survey (Nhi's) Linked Mortality Files by linking eligible adults in the 1986–2000 Nhi's cohorts through probabilistic record linkage to the National Death index to obtain mortality follow-up through December 31, 2002. The resulting files contain more than 120,000 deaths and an average of 9 years of survival time. To assess how well mortality was ascertained in the linked mortality files, NCHS has conducted a comparison of the mortality experience of the 1986–2000 Nhi's cohorts with that of the U.S. population. This report presents the results of this comparative mortality assessment.
