The NHIS is a computer assisted personal household interview of all child and adult family members in selected households. Using a multi-stage area probability sampling design, the NHIS is conducted continuously through each year (since 1957). The 2012 NHIS consists of both a Core questionnaire and Supplements, including the Child CAM Supplement, which was also conducted in the 2007 NHIS. One child from each family is randomly selected to be the Sample Child (S.C.), and an adult knowledgeable about the child’s health is administered the full Sample Child Core and Child CAM Supplement.

This guide describes the topics and questions asked in the 2012 NHIS Child CAM Supplement. Note that all questions are asked only of children age 4-17. Since the NHIS Child CAM Supplement can be linked to all other NHIS data files and to future year versions of the Medical Expenditures Panel Survey (MEPS), many other variables are possible to include in analyses of the Child CAM Supplement. Further information regarding this will be provided elsewhere on the Data Resource Center for Child and Adolescent Health website (www.childhealthdata.org).

*Denotes that survey item is new to the 2011/12 NHIS Child CAM Supplement compared to the 2007.
