    3. Overview of Population Heath Surveys

    4. 4 Objectives Aid in the development of public policy; Understand the determinants of health; Collect data on the economic, social, demographic, occupational and environmental correlates of health; Increase the understanding of the relationship between health status and health care utilization;

    5. 5 Objectives Follow a panel of people to reflect the dynamic processes of health (NPHS); Provide a means to supplement content and sample; Provide the possibility of linking survey data to other data sources administrative data

    6. Population Health Surveys

    7. 7 Population Health Surveys NPHS Cross-sectional and longitudinal National, Provincial North component Institutions component (national) Core, focus, buy-ins & supplements CCHS Cross-sectional National, provincial/ territorial & regional (health regions) Common, selection of optional modules to fulfil health regions needs, sub-sample, buy-ins & supplements

    8. NPHS description Institutions component North component Household component Content

    9. 9 NPHS Cross-sectional (x-sec.) survey given population at one point in time Longitudinal (Long.) designed to survey selected population repeatedly over time

    10. 10 NPHS Started in 1994-1995 Conducted every two years Cycle 1 (1994-1995): Household & Institutions & North (long, x-sec) Cycle 2 (1996-1997): Household & Institutions & North (long, x-sec) Cycle 3 (1998-1999): Household &North (long, x-sec), Institutions (long) Cycle 4 (2000-2001): Household & Institutions (long.) Cycle 5 (2002-2003): Household & Institutions (long.) Cycle 6 (2004-2005): Household (long.) …

    11. 11 NPHS Institutions component Longitudinal & x-sectional: Cycles 1 & 2 Strictly longitudinal: Cycle 3 Target population Non autonomous residents of long term (more then 6 months) health care establishments (4+ beds) in all provinces excludes the territories, Indian Reserves and Canadian Forces Bases, correctional facilities, prisons, young offender facilities, orphanages and religious institutions.

    12. 12 NPHS Institutions component Designed to produce national estimates only. Cycle 1 Sampling frames HSD residential care facilities list HSD hospitals list Longitudinal sample Cycle 1 respondents: 2,287 ? longitudinal sample. Cross-sectional sample C2: Top-up

    13. 13 NPHS Institutions component Field operations conducted by STC Data collection: ?Jan y2 - ? May y2 Paper questionnaires Institution control form Ask about Institution policies Respondent questionnaire based on household « core » content mostly in-person interviews Collected mainly in person

    14. 14 NPHS Institutions component High proxy rate (71% in C4) Next of kin Institution staff Family member High mortality ? 1/3 each cycle Used to survey institutionalized respondents from the household component

    15. 15 NPHS North component Longitudinal & x-sectional C1, C2 and C3 Longitudinal data C3 not processed) Target population household residents aged 12 + living in each territory (+ Nunavut in C3) excludes Indian reserves, Canadian Forces Bases and unorganized or extreme remote areas Designed to produce estimates at the territory level.

    16. 16 NPHS North component C1 Sample size: ? 2,000 Cross-sectional sample C2 and C3: top-up Integrated NPHS / NLSCY survey reduce respondent burden Field operations conducted by Yukon & NWT statistical agencies Collection challenges (moving/scattered population)

    17. 17 NPHS North component Data collection: November y1 - March y2 Paper questionnaire includes most of household « core » content Collected in person & by telephone data

    18. 18 NPHS Household component Target population Household residents all ages in all provinces excludes Indian reserves, Canadian Forces Bases and some remote areas in northern Québec & Ontario Children aged 0-11 (2,022) collected via NLSCY in C1 and « repatriated » in NPHS in C2

    19. 19 NPHS Household component Designed to produce provincial & national level estimates Cycle 1 sampling frame Based on Labour Force Survey (LFS) frame & Enquęte sociale et de santé (Québec only) Sample of households One member selected per household at collection ? longitudinal panel

    20. 20 NPHS Household component Longitudinal sample Cycle 1 responding selected members + children from NLSCY formed the NPHS longitudinal panel ? 17,276. Subsequent cycles from C2 and on ? Survey same panel of respondents.
