"This report is one in a set of reports summarizing data from the 2007 National Health Interview Survey (NHIS), a multipurpose health survey conducted by the Centers for Disease Control and Prevention's (CDC) National Center for Health Statistics (NCHS). This report provides national estimates for a broad range of health measures for the U.S. civilian noninstitutionalized population. Two other reports in this year's set provide estimates for selected health measures for the U.S. population and for children under 18 years of age. These three volumes of descriptive statistics and highlights are published for each year of NHIS, and since 1997 have replaced the annual, one-volume Current Estimates series." - p. 1.
