Objectives This report presents health statistics from the 2010 National Health Interview Survey (NHIS) for the civilian noninstitutionalized adult population, classified by sex, age, race and Hispanic origin, education, family income, poverty status, health insurance coverage, marital status, and place and region of residence. Estimates are presented for selected chronic conditions and mental health characteristics, functional limitations, health status, health behaviors, health care access and utilization, and human immunodeficiency virus testing. Percentages and percent distributions are presented in both age-adjusted and unadjusted versions.

Data Source NHIS is a household, multistage probability sample survey conducted annually by interviewers of the U.S. Census Bureau for the Centers for Disease Control and Prevention’s National Center for Health Statistics. In 2010, data were collected on 27,157 adults in the Sample Adult questionnaire. The conditional response rate was 77.3%, and the final response rate was 60.8%. The health information for adults in this report was obtained from one randomly selected adult per family. In very rare instances where the sample adult was not able to respond for himself or herself, a proxy was used.

Highlights In 2010, 61% of adults aged 18 years and over had excellent or very good health. Twelve percent of adults had been told by a doctor or health professional that they had heart disease, 25% had been told on two or more visits that they had hypertension, 9% had been told they had diabetes, and 22% had been told they had some form of arthritis, rheumatoid arthritis, gout, lupus, or fibromyalgia. Twenty-one percent of adults were current smokers, and 21% were former smokers. Based on estimates of body mass index, 35% of adults were overweight and 27% were obese. Keywords: chronic conditions • health behavior • health utilization • mental health

Summary Health Statistics for U.S. Adults: National Health Interview Survey, 2010 by Jeannine S. Schiller, M.P.H.; Jacqueline W. Lucas, M.P.H.; Brian W. Ward, Ph.D.; and Jennifer A. Peregoy, M.P.H., Division of Health Interview Statistics

Introduction This report is one in a set of reports summarizing data from the 2010 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 of adults. The other two reports in this set provide estimates of selected health measures for the U.S. population and for children under age 18 years (1,2). These three volumes of descriptive statistics and highlights are published for each year of NHIS (3–5) and, since 1997, have replaced the annual, one-volume Current Estimates series (6). Estimates are presented here for selected chronic conditions, selected mental health characteristics, functional limitations, health status, health behaviors, health care access and utilization, and human immunodeficiency virus (HIV) testing status, and are derived from the Sample Adult Core component of the annual NHIS Basic Module. These health estimates are shown in Tables 1–41 for various population subgroups, including those defined by sex, age, race and Hispanic origin, education (for persons aged 25 and over), family income, poverty status, health insurance coverage, marital status, place of residence, and region of residence. Appendix I contains brief technical

notes on methods and detailed information about age adjustment and unknown values (Tables I–III). Appendix II contains definitions of selected terms used in this report, and Appendix III contains tables of unadjusted health estimates. NHIS has been an important source of information about health and health care in the United States since it was first conducted in 1957. Given the ever-changing nature of the U.S. population, the NHIS questionnaire has been revised every 10–15 years, with the latest revision occurring in 1997. The first design changes were introduced in 1973 and the first procedural changes in 1975 (7). In 1982, the NHIS questionnaire and data preparation procedures of the survey were extensively revised. The basic concepts of NHIS changed in some cases; in other cases, the concepts were measured differently. A more complete explanation of the 1982 changes is given in Appendix IV of Series 10, No. 150 (8). In 1985, a new sample design for NHIS and a different method of presenting sampling errors were introduced (9,10). In 1995, another change in the sample design was introduced, including the oversampling of black and Hispanic or Latino persons (11). The 1997 NHIS featured both a substantially revised instrument (in terms of questionnaire content) and a new means of administration (i.e., computer-assisted personal interviewing). This new design improves the ability of NHIS to provide important health information. However, comparisons of NHIS data collected Page 1

Page 2 [ Series 10, No. 252

before and after the beginning of 1997 should not be undertaken without a careful examination of the changes across survey instruments (6,8,10). In response to the changing demographics of the U.S. population, in 1997 the Office of Management and Budget (OMB) issued new standards for the collection of data on race and Hispanic or Latino origin (12). Most notably, the new standards allow respondents to the census and federal surveys to indicate more than one group in answering questions on race. Additionally, the category ‘‘Asian or Pacific Islander’’ is now split into two distinct categories, ‘‘Asian’’ and ‘‘Native Hawaiian or Other Pacific Islander’’ (NHOPI), for data collection purposes. Although NHIS had allowed respondents to choose more than one race group for many years, NHIS became completely compliant with all of the new race and ethnicity standards with the fielding of the 1999 survey. The tables in this report reflect these new standards. The text in this report uses shorter versions of the new OMB race and Hispanic or Latino origin terms for conciseness, but the tables use the complete terms. For example, the category ‘‘Not Hispanic or Latino, black or African American, single race’’ in the tables is referred to as ‘‘non-Hispanic black’’ in the text. The NHIS sample is redesigned and redrawn about every 10 years to better measure the changing U.S. population and to meet new survey objectives. A new sample design for NHIS was implemented in 2006. Its fundamental structure is very similar to the previous 1995–2005 NHIS sample design, including state-level stratification. The new sample design reduced the NHIS sample size by about 13% compared with the 1995–2005 NHIS. Oversampling of the black and Hispanic populations has been retained in 2006 and beyond to allow for more precise estimation of health characteristics in these growing minority populations. The new sample design also oversamples the Asian population. In addition, the sample adult selection process has been revised so that when black, Hispanic, or Asian persons aged 65 and over are in the family, they have an increased

chance of being selected as the sample adult. Additionally, beginning with the 2003 NHIS, editing procedures were changed to maintain consistency with U.S. Census Bureau procedures for collecting and editing data on race and ethnicity. As a result of these changes, in cases where ‘‘Other race’’ was mentioned along with one or more OMB race groups, the ‘‘Other race’’ response is dropped, and the OMB race group information is retained on the NHIS data file. In cases where ‘‘Other race’’ was the only race response, it is treated as missing and the race is imputed. Although this change has resulted in an increase in the number of persons in the OMB race category ‘‘White,’’ which numerically is the largest group, the change is not expected to have a substantial effect on the estimates in this report. More information about the race and ethnicity editing procedures used by the Census Bureau is available from: http://www. census.gov/popest/data/historical/files/ MRSF-01-US1.pdf.

Methods Data Source The main objective of NHIS is to monitor the health of the U.S. population through the collection and analysis of data on a broad range of health topics. The target population for NHIS is the civilian noninstitutionalized population of the United States. Persons excluded are patients in long-term care institutions (e.g., nursing homes for the elderly, hospitals for the chronically ill or physically or intellectually disabled, and wards for abused or neglected children), correctional facilities (e.g., prisons or jails, juvenile detention centers, and halfway houses), active-duty Armed Forces personnel (although their civilian family members are included), and U.S. nationals living in foreign countries. Each year, a representative sample of households across the country is selected for NHIS using a multistage cluster sample design. Details on the sample design used for

the 1995–2005 NHIS can be found in ‘‘Design and Estimation for the National Health Interview Survey, 1995–2004’’ (11). A new report providing a complete description of the 2006 NHIS sample design is being developed. Trained interviewers from the U.S. Census Bureau visit each selected household and administer NHIS in person. Detailed interviewer instructions can be found in the NHIS field representative’s manual (13). The annual NHIS questionnaire (also called the Basic Module or Core) consists of three main components: Family Core, Sample Adult Core, and Sample Child Core. The Family Core collects information for all family members regarding household composition and sociodemographic characteristics, along with basic indicators of health status, limitation in activities, and utilization of health care services. One responsible family member whose age is equal to or over the age of majority for a given state responds to questions about all family members in the Family Core. In most states, this age is 18 years, but in Alabama and Nebraska it is 19 years, and in Mississippi it is 21 years. Although considerable effort is made to ensure accurate reporting, information from both proxies and self-respondents may be inaccurate because the respondent is unaware of relevant information, has forgotten it, does not wish to reveal it to an interviewer, or does not understand the intended meaning of the question. The Sample Adult and Sample Child cores obtain additional information on the health of one randomly selected adult (‘‘sample adult’’) and child (‘‘sample child’’) in the family. The sample adult responds for himself or herself; a knowledgeable adult in the family provides proxy responses for the sample child. In rare instances when the sample adult is mentally or physically incapable of responding, proxy responses are accepted for this person. The Sample Adult Core, the primary source of data for this report, collects information on health conditions, activity limitations, health behaviors, and access to and utilization of health care services from

Series 10, No. 252 [ Page 3

one randomly selected adult per family. Information regarding demographic characteristics in this report is obtained from the Family Core. The interviewed sample for 2010 consisted of 34,329 households, which yielded 89,976 persons in 35,177 families. A total of 35,153 adults were eligible for the Sample Adult questionnaire. Data were collected for 27,157 adults, a conditional response rate of 77.3% (the number of completed Sample Adult interviews divided by the total number of eligible sample adults). The unconditional or final response rate for the Sample Adult Core component was calculated by multiplying the conditional rate by the overall family response rate of 78.7%, yielding a final Sample Adult component response rate of 60.8% (14).

Estimation Procedures The Sample Adult weights were used to produce the national health estimates contained in this report. For each health measure, both weighted frequencies and percentages (or rates) for all adults and for various subgroups of the adult population are shown. All counts are expressed in thousands. Counts for persons of unknown status with respect to health characteristics of interest are not shown separately in the tables, nor are they included in the calculation of percentages (or rates), to provide a more straightforward presentation of the data. For all health measures in this report, the percentages with unknown values are typically small (generally less than 1%) and are shown in Appendix I, Table II. Nevertheless, these unknown cases are included in the total population counts shown in selected tables. Therefore, slightly different percentages than those shown in the tables may be obtained if percentages are calculated based on the frequencies and population counts presented in the tables. In addition, some of the sociodemographic variables that are used to delineate various population subgroups have unknown values. For most of these variables, the percentage

unknown is small. However, in the case of family income, no income information is available for about 3% of sample adults in the 2010 survey, and about 15% of sample adults provided only a broad range for their family income (see ‘‘Income and Poverty Status Changes’’ section). Poverty status, which is based on family income, has a high nonresponse rate as a result (Appendix I, Table III) (15). Missing data on family income and personal earnings in NHIS have been imputed by NCHS analysts using multipleimputation methodology. Five ASCII data sets containing imputed values for the survey year and additional information about the imputed income files can be found at http:// www.cdc.gov/nchs/nhis.htm. However, income and poverty estimates in this publication are based only on reported income and may differ from other measures that are based on imputed data (which were not available when this report was prepared). Health estimates for sample adults with these unknown sociodemographic characteristics are not shown in the tables. Appendix I, Table III, provides more information on the extent of unknown data for income and poverty status.

Transition to 2000 Census-based Weights In Summary Health Statistics reports prior to 2003, weights for NHIS data were derived from 1990 census-based postcensal population estimates. Beginning with 2003 data, NHIS transitioned to weights derived from 2000 census-based population estimates. The impact of this transition was assessed for the 2002 NHIS by comparing estimates for selected health characteristics using the 1990 census-based weights with those using the 2000 census-based weights. Although the effect of new population controls on survey estimates differed by type of health characteristic, the effect of this change on health characteristic rates was small but was somewhat larger for weighted frequencies (16).

Age Adjustment Beginning with the 2002 Summary Health Statistics report, estimates have been provided in two sets of tables. Unless otherwise specified, percentages in the first set (Tables 1–41) were age adjusted to the projected 2000 U.S. standard population. Age adjustment was used to permit comparison among various sociodemographic subgroups that may have different age structures (17,18). The age groups used for age adjustment in this report are 18–44, 45–64, 65–74, and 75 years and over, unless otherwise noted (Appendix I, Table I). Health insurance and education are restricted to certain age groups and are therefore adjusted accordingly (see relevant table footnotes for age groups). Age-adjusted estimates shown in the tables may not match age-adjusted estimates for the same health characteristic in other reports if different age groups were used for age adjustment. Tables IV–XXIII in Appendix III provide unadjusted estimates so that current estimates may be compared with those published in the 1997–2001 Summary Health Statistics reports to determine the effects of age adjustment on the 2010 estimates (see Appendix I for details on age adjustment). Frequency tables have been removed from the set of unadjusted tables in Appendix III to eliminate redundancy.

Sample Size Changes in NHIS The size of the NHIS sample was reduced due to budget shortfalls in 2002–2004 and 2006–2008. Following a reduction of approximately 50% during January–March 2009, newly available funding later in 2009 permitted an expansion during October–December to expand that quarter’s normal sample size by approximately 50%. The net effect of the January–March reduction and the October–December expansion was that the 2009 NHIS sample size was approximately the same as it would have been if the sample had been maintained at a normal level during the entire calendar year.


In 2010, the NHIS sample was increased by approximately 25% during January–March. No further increases or reductions were made in the remaining months of that year, resulting in a 2010 NHIS sample size that was slightly larger than the 2009 NHIS sample size.

Income and Poverty Status Changes Starting with the 2007 NHIS, the income amount follow-up questions that had been in place since 1997 were replaced with a series of unfolding bracket questions. This decision was based on the relatively poor performance of the 1997–2006 versions of the follow-up income amount questions and on the results of a 2006 field test that compared unfolding bracket follow-up questions with the income amount follow-up questions used since 1997. Further information about the 2006 field test is available in Appendix I. The unfolding bracket method utilized a series of closed-ended income range questions (e.g., ‘‘Is it less than $50,000?’’) for respondents who failed to provide the exact amount of the family income. The closed-ended income range questions were constructed so that each successive question established a smaller range for the amount of the family income in the last calendar year. Based on results from the 2006 field test, the unfolding bracket follow-up income questions performed better than the follow-up income questions used from 1997 to 2006. For example, the percentage of unknown responses for a three-category poverty status variable was 17% using the income bracket follow-up questions compared with 31% using the income follow-up questions used from 1997 through 2006. Because of these positive results, the unfolding bracket income follow-up questions were implemented during the first quarter of the 2007 NHIS. Due to differences in the income follow-up questions between 1997–2006 and 2007–2010, income and poverty status

estimates from 2007–2010 may not be comparable with those from prior years.

Variance Estimation and Significance Testing

Data Limitations

Because NHIS data are based on a sample of the population, the data are subject to sampling error. Standard errors are reported to indicate the reliability of the estimates. Estimates and standard errors were calculated using SUDAAN software (19), which takes into account the complex sampling design of NHIS. The Taylor series linearization method was used for variance estimation in SUDAAN. Standard errors are shown for all rates and percentages in the tables (but not for the frequencies). Estimates with a relative standard error greater than 30% and less than or equal to 50% are indicated with an asterisk (*) and should be used with caution because they do not meet standards of reliability or precision. Estimates with a relative standard error greater than 50% are indicated with a dagger (†) and are not shown. The statistical significance of differences between point estimates was evaluated using two-sided t tests at the 0.05 level and assuming independence. Terms such as ‘‘greater than,’’ ‘‘less than,’’ ‘‘more likely,’’ ‘‘less likely,’’ ‘‘compared with,’’ or ‘‘opposed to’’ indicate a significant difference between estimates, whereas ‘‘similar,’’ ‘‘no difference,’’ or ‘‘comparable’’ indicate that the estimates are not significantly different. A lack of commentary about any two estimates should not be interpreted to mean that a t test was performed and the difference was found to be not significant. Furthermore, these tests did not take into account multiple comparisons. Estimates for population subgroups with small sample sizes may fluctuate considerably from year to year due to sampling variability.

The redesigned NHIS is quite different in content, format, and mode of data collection from earlier versions of the survey. These changes can make it complex to compare 1997–2010 NHIS estimates with those of earlier years. The 2006–2010 NHIS is based on a different sample design, including the oversampling of the Asian population and of Hispanic, black, or Asian sample adults at least 65 years of age, as well as a permanent sample reduction of 13%, compared with the 1997–2005 NHIS. The change in sample design should be considered when comparing estimates from the 2006–2010 NHIS with those from earlier years. Beginning in 2003, NHIS uses weights derived from the 2000 census-based population estimates. Those who compare NHIS frequencies across this transition (e.g., comparing 2005 with 2002) must recognize that some of the observed differences may be due to the change in population estimates. Unadjusted percentage estimates shown in the Appendix III tables may be compared with those published in Summary Health Statistics reports of 1997–2001, which did not contain age-adjusted estimates. Age-adjusted estimates in this report should not be compared with earlier unadjusted estimates unless it can be demonstrated that the effect of age adjustment is minimal. It is important to note that frequencies are underestimates due to item nonresponse and unknowns, both of which are excluded from the tables (with the exception of the ‘‘All persons’’ or ‘‘Total’’ columns shown in each table). Appendix I, Tables II and III, provide more information about the number of unknowns with respect to each health characteristic. Estimates should be interpreted only after reviewing Appendix I, which contains important information about the methods used to obtain the estimates, changes in the survey instrument, and measurement issues currently being evaluated.

Selected Highlights This section presents brief bulleted summaries of the estimates shown in Tables 1–41. Estimated percentages were age adjusted by the direct method using the 2000 U.S. population as the standard population. In most cases, the age groups used to adjust estimated percentages are the same age groups presented in the tables (see table notes for age adjustment groups). All estimates were calculated using the Sample Adult weight variable, which is calibrated by NCHS staff to produce numbers consistent with estimates of the adult civilian noninstitutionalized population of the United States by sex, age, and race and ethnicity, based on projections from U.S. Census 2000.

Selected Circulatory Conditions (Tables 1 and 2) + Overall, 12% of adults aged 18 years and over had ever been told by a doctor or other health professional that they had heart disease, 6% had ever been told they had coronary heart disease, 25% had been told on two or more visits they had hypertension, and 3% had ever been told they had experienced a stroke. + Among adults aged 18 years and over, men were more likely to have ever been told they had coronary heart disease than women. The prevalence of hypertension in men

and women was similar. + A positive relationship was observed between age and the presence of heart disease (including coronary heart disease), hypertension, and stroke: As age increased, the percentages of adults with these conditions also increased. + When results are considered by single race without regard to ethnicity, Asian adults were less likely to have ever been told they had coronary heart disease or hypertension than white adults. Asian adults and white adults were less likely to have been told they had hypertension compared with black adults. + When results are considered by single race and ethnicity, Hispanic adults were less likely to have been told they had any type of heart disease than non-Hispanic white adults. Thirty-four percent of non-Hispanic black adults had ever been told they had hypertension compared with 23% of Hispanic adults and 24% of non-Hispanic white adults. + Education was inversely associated with coronary heart disease, hypertension, and stroke: As educational level increased, the percentages of adults with these conditions decreased. + Poverty level was inversely associated with heart disease (any type), hypertension, and stroke. Adults in families that were poor or near poor were more likely to have ever been told they had these conditions than were adults in families that were not poor. + Among adults under age 65 years, those covered by Medicaid were more likely to have been told they had heart disease (any type) than those with private insurance or who were uninsured. Among adults aged 65 years and over, those covered by Medicaid and Medicare were more likely to have been told they had hypertension than those with either Medicare alone or private insurance. + Thirty-seven percent of nonHispanic black women had hypertension compared with 23% of non-Hispanic white women and 23%

of Hispanic women. Thirty-one percent of non-Hispanic black men had hypertension compared with 25% of non-Hispanic white men and 21% of Hispanic men. Non-Hispanic white men had the highest percentage of heart disease (any type) compared with other single-race sex and ethnicity groups.

Of those adults with a usual place of health care, 80% of non-Hispanic white adults considered a doctor’s office or an HMO to be their usual place of health care compared with 69% of non-Hispanic black adults and 61% of Hispanic adults. Two percent of non-Hispanic white adults who had a usual place of health care considered a hospital emergency room or outpatient department their usual place of health care, compared with 4% of Hispanic adults and 7% of non-Hispanic black adults. + Adults with higher educational attainment and higher family income were more likely to have a usual place of health care and to consider a doctor’s office or HMO as their usual place of health care than those with lower educational attainment and family income. + Among adults under age 65 years, 51% of those who were uninsured did not have a usual place of health care compared with 11% of those adults with private health care coverage and 10% of those adults with Medicaid health care coverage. + Among adults aged 65 years and over with a usual place of health care, 22% of those who had Medicaid and Medicare health care coverage considered a clinic or health center their usual place of health care compared with 12% of those who had private health insurance and 14% of those who had only Medicare health care coverage. + Of those adults with a usual place of health care, adults who did not live in an MSA were more likely to consider a health center or clinic their usual place of health care than adults living in an MSA. + Nineteen percent of adults living in the West and 20% of adults living in the South were without a usual place of health care compared with

14% in the Midwest and 13% in the Northeast. + Thirty-two percent of Hispanic men did not have a usual place of health care compared with 22% of non-Hispanic black men and 19% of non-Hispanic white men.

12 months than adults who were not poor. Among adults under age 65 years, 49% who were uninsured had no visits to a doctor or other health professional in the past 12 months compared with 16% with private health care coverage and 16% with Medicaid health care coverage. Adults in this age group who were covered by Medicaid or other forms of insurance were more likely to have 10 or more office visits in the past 12 months than those with private insurance or who were uninsured. Eight percent of adults aged 65 years and over with only Medicare health care coverage had no visits to a doctor or other health professional in the past 12 months compared with 5% of those with private health insurance coverage.

within the previous 6 months; 15% last contacted a doctor or other health professional more than 6 months ago, but not more than 1 year ago; 8% last contacted a doctor or other health professional more than 1 year ago, but not more than 2 years ago; 6% last contacted a doctor or other health professional more than 2 years ago, but not more than 5 years ago; and 3% last contacted a doctor or other health professional more than 5 years ago. One percent of adults had never contacted a doctor or other health professional. Seventy-three percent of women and 59% of men last contacted a doctor or other health professional within the previous 6 months. Men were more likely to have last contacted a doctor a year or more ago, as well as to have never contacted a doctor, than women. Older adults (aged 65 years and over) were more likely to have had more recent contact (within the past 6 months) with a doctor or other health professional than younger adults (under age 65 years). When results are considered by single race and ethnicity, Hispanic adults were less likely to have had more recent contact (within the past 6 months) with a doctor or other health professional than either non-Hispanic white adults or non-Hispanic black adults. Hispanic adults were more than 3 times as likely to have never had contact with a doctor or other health professional as non-Hispanic black adults, and 4 1/2 times as likely to have never had contact with a doctor or other health professional as non-Hispanic white adults. Adults with an educational attainment of a high school diploma or less were less likely to have last seen a doctor within the last 6 months and more likely to have never seen a doctor than adults with more education. Adults in families that were not poor were more likely to have had more recent contact (within the past 6 months) with a doctor or other

health professional than adults in poor or near-poor families. + Adults under age 65 years who were uninsured were much less likely to have last contacted a doctor or other health professional within the previous 6 months than insured adults. + Hispanic men were less likely to have seen a doctor or other health professional within the previous 6 months compared with non-Hispanic black and non-Hispanic white men; 4% of Hispanic men had never seen or talked to a doctor or other health professional compared with 1% each of non-Hispanic black and non-Hispanic white men. Among women, Hispanic women were less likely to have had contact with a doctor in the last 6 months compared with non-Hispanic black and non-Hispanic white women.

Length of Time Since Last Contact With Dentist or Other Dental Health Professional (Tables 38 and 39) + Overall, 43% of adults aged 18 years and over last contacted a dentist or other dental health professional within the previous 6 months; 17%, more than 6 months ago, but not more than 1 year ago; and 13% each for the categories more than 1 year ago, but not more than 2 years ago; more than 2 years ago, but not more than 5 years ago; and more than 5 years ago. One percent of adults had never contacted a dentist or other dental health professional. + Forty-six percent of women last contacted a dentist or other dental health professional within the previous 6 months compared with 40% of men. + When results are considered by single race and ethnicity, nonHispanic white adults were more likely to have contacted a dentist or other dental health professional within the previous 6 months (48%) than either non-Hispanic black


+

+

+

+

+

adults (31%) or Hispanic adults (30%). Three percent of Hispanic adults had never contacted a dentist compared with 1% of non-Hispanic black adults and less than 1% of non-Hispanic white adults. Adults with higher educational attainment and higher family income were considerably more likely to have contacted a dentist or other dental health professional in the last 6 months than those with lower educational attainment and lower family income. Among adults under age 65 years, 53% of adults with private health care coverage had contact with a dentist or other dental health professional within the past 6 months compared with 31% of adults with Medicaid health care coverage and 18% of adults who were uninsured. Among adults aged 65 years and over, 51% of adults with private health care coverage had contact with a dentist or other dental professional within the past 6 months compared with 39% of adults who had only Medicare health care coverage and 18% of adults who had Medicaid and Medicare health care coverage. Married adults were more likely to have had more recent dental contact (6 months or less) compared with other marital status categories. Adults who did not live in an MSA were less likely to have had contact with a dentist or other dental health professional within the past 6 months than adults who lived in an MSA.

HIV Testing Status (Tables 40 and 41) + Overall, 40% of adults aged 18 years and over had ever been tested for HIV. + Women were more likely to have ever been tested for HIV than men. + HIV testing status was inversely related to age—51% of adults aged 18–44 years had ever been tested for

+

+

+

+

+

+

+

+

HIV compared with 37% of those aged 45–64 years, 17% of those aged 65–74 years, and 8% of those aged 75 years and over. When considering results by single race without regard to ethnicity, 58% of black adults had ever been tested for HIV compared with 41% of AIAN adults, 38% of white adults, and 34% of Asian adults. When considering results by single race and ethnicity, 58% of non-Hispanic black adults had ever been tested for HIV compared with 41% of Hispanic adults and 37% of non-Hispanic white adults. A higher percentage of adults who had some college and those with at least a bachelor’s degree had ever been tested for HIV compared with adults having less education. Among adults under age 65 years, 57% of those who had Medicaid health care coverage had ever been tested for HIV compared with 45% who were uninsured and 44% of those who had private health insurance.

Adults who lived in the Midwest were less likely to have ever been tested for HIV than adults who lived in other regions. Sixty-one percent of non-Hispanic black women had ever been tested for HIV compared with 48% of Hispanic women and 42% of non-Hispanic white women. Fifty-five percent of non-Hispanic black men had ever been tested for HIV compared with 35% of Hispanic men and 33% of non-Hispanic white men.

* Estimates preceded by an asterisk have a relative standard error greater than 30% and less than or equal to 50% and should be used with caution as they do not meet standards of reliability or precision. † Estimates with a relative standard error greater than 50% are replaced with a dagger and are not shown. – Quantity zero. 1 In separate questions, respondents were asked if they had ever been told by a doctor or other health professional that they had: hypertension (or high blood pressure), coronary heart disease, angina (or angina pectoris), heart attack (or myocardial infarction), any other heart condition or disease not already mentioned, or a stroke. A person may be represented in more than one column. 2

Includes coronary heart disease, angina pectoris, heart attack, or any other heart condition or disease. Includes coronary heart disease, angina pectoris, or heart attack. 4 Persons had to have been told on two or more different visits that they had hypertension or high blood pressure to be classified as hypertensive. 5 Unknowns for the columns were not included in the frequencies (see Appendix I), but they are included in the ‘‘All persons aged 18 years and over’’ column. The numbers in this table are rounded. 6 Includes other races not shown separately and persons with unknown education, family income, poverty status, health insurance, and marital status characteristics. 7 In accordance with the 1997 standards for federal data on race and Hispanic or Latino origin (see Appendix II), the category ‘‘One race’’ refers to persons who indicated only a single race group. Persons who indicated a single race other than the groups shown are included in the total for ‘‘One race’’ but are not shown separately due to small sample sizes. Therefore, the frequencies for the category ‘‘One race’’ will be greater than the sum of the frequencies for the specific groups shown separately. Persons of Hispanic or Latino origin may be of any race or combination of races. The tables in this report use the current (1997) Office of Management and Budget race and Hispanic origin terms, and the text uses shorter versions of these terms for conciseness. For example, the category ‘‘One race, Black or African American’’ in the tables is referred to as ‘‘black persons’’ in the text. 3

8 Refers to all persons who indicated more than one race group. Only two combinations of multiple race groups are shown due to small sample sizes for other combinations. Therefore, the frequencies for the category ‘‘Two or more races’’ will be greater than the sum of the frequencies for the specific combinations shown separately. 9

Persons of Hispanic or Latino origin may be of any race or combination of races. Similarly, the category ‘‘Not Hispanic or Latino’’ refers to all persons who are not of Hispanic or Latino origin, regardless of race.

10

Shown only for persons aged 25 years and over. GED is General Educational Development high school equivalency diploma. 12 The categories ‘‘Less than $35,000’’ and ‘‘$35,000 or more’’ include both persons reporting dollar amounts and persons reporting only that their incomes were within one of these two categories (see Appendix I). The indented categories include only those persons who reported dollar amounts. Because of the different income questions used in 2007 and beyond, income estimates may not be comparable with those from earlier years. 11

Page 18 [ Series 10, No. 252 13

Based on family income and family size using the U.S. Census Bureau’s poverty thresholds for the previous calendar year. ‘‘Poor’’ persons are defined as below the poverty threshold. ‘‘Near poor’’ persons have incomes of 100% to less than 200% of the poverty threshold. ‘‘Not poor’’ persons have incomes that are 200% of the poverty threshold or greater. Because of the different income questions used in 2007 and beyond, poverty ratio estimates may not be comparable with those from earlier years. 14 Based on a hierarchy of mutually exclusive categories. Persons with more than one type of health insurance were assigned to the first appropriate category in the hierarchy. Persons under age 65 years and those aged 65 years and over were classified separately due to the predominance of Medicare coverage in the older population. The category ‘‘Private’’ includes persons who had any type of private coverage either alone or in combination with other coverage. For example, for persons aged 65 years and over, ‘‘Private’’ includes persons with only private coverage or private in combination with Medicare coverage. The category ‘‘Uninsured’’ includes persons who had no coverage as well as those who had only Indian Health Service coverage or had only a private plan that paid for one type of service such as accidents or dental care (see Appendix II). 15 MSA is metropolitan statistical area. Large MSAs have a population size of 1 million or more; small MSAs have a population size of less than 1 million. ‘‘Not in MSA’’ consists of persons not living in a metropolitan statistical area.

NOTE: Estimates are based on household interviews of a sample of the civilian noninstitutionalized population. SOURCE: CDC/NCHS, National Health Interview Survey, 2010.

The category ‘‘Uninsured’’ includes persons who had no coverage as well as those who had only Indian Health Service coverage or had only a private plan that paid for one type of service such as accidents or dental care (see Appendix II). Estimates are age adjusted to the projected 2000 U.S. population as the standard population using two age groups for persons under age 65 (18–44 years and 45–64 years), and two age groups for persons aged 65 years and over (65–74 years and 75 years and over). 16 MSA is metropolitan statistical area. Large MSAs have a population size of 1 million or more; small MSAs have a population size of less than 1 million. ‘‘Not in MSA’’ consists of persons not living in a metropolitan statistical area.

NOTES: Estimates are based on household interviews of a sample of the civilian noninstitutionalized population. Unless otherwise specified, estimates are age adjusted to the projected 2000 U.S. population as the standard population using four age groups: 18–44 years, 45–64 years, 65–74 years, and 75 years and over. For crude percentages, refer to Table IV in Appendix III. SOURCE: CDC/NCHS, National Health Interview Survey, 2010.

† Estimates with a relative standard error greater than 50% are replaced with a dagger and are not shown. * Estimates preceded by an asterisk have a relative standard error greater than 30% and less than or equal to 50% and should be used with caution as they do not meet standards of reliability or precision. – Quantity zero. 1 Respondents were asked in two separate questions if they had ever been told by a doctor or other health professional that they had emphysema or asthma. Respondents who had been told they had asthma were asked if they still had asthma. Respondents were asked in three separate questions if they had been told by a doctor or other health professional in the past 12 months that they had hay fever, sinusitis, or bronchitis. A person may be represented in more than one column. 2

Unknowns for the columns were not included in the frequencies (see Appendix I), but they are included in the ‘‘All persons aged 18 years and over’’ column. The numbers in this table are rounded. Includes other races not shown separately and persons with unknown education, family income, poverty status, health insurance, and marital status characteristics.

Based on family income and family size using the U.S. Census Bureau’s poverty thresholds for the previous calendar year. ‘‘Poor’’ persons are defined as below the poverty threshold. ‘‘Near poor’’ persons have incomes of 100% to less than 200% of the poverty threshold. ‘‘Not poor’’ persons have incomes that are 200% of the poverty threshold or greater. Because of the different income questions used in 2007 and beyond, poverty ratio estimates may not be comparable with those from earlier years.

Page 24 [ Series 10, No. 252 11 Based on a hierarchy of mutually exclusive categories. Persons with more than one type of health insurance were assigned to the first appropriate category in the hierarchy. Persons under age 65 years and those aged 65 years and over were classified separately due to the predominance of Medicare coverage in the older population. The category ‘‘Private’’ includes persons who had any type of private coverage either alone or in combination with other coverage. For example, for persons aged 65 years and over, ‘‘Private’’ includes persons with only private coverage or private in combination with Medicare coverage. The category ‘‘Uninsured’’ includes persons who had no coverage as well as those who had only Indian Health Service coverage or had only a private plan that paid for one type of service such as accidents or dental care (see Appendix II). 12 MSA is metropolitan statistical area. Large MSAs have a population size of 1 million or more; small MSAs have a population size of less than 1 million. ‘‘Not in MSA’’ consists of persons not living in a metropolitan statistical area.

Unknowns for the columns were not included in the denominators when calculating percentages (see Appendix I). Percentages may not add to totals due to rounding. Includes other races not shown separately and persons with unknown education, family income, poverty status, health insurance, and marital status characteristics.

Estimates for age groups are not age adjusted. In accordance with the 1997 standards for federal data on race and Hispanic or Latino origin (see Appendix I), the category ‘‘One race’’ refers to persons who indicated only a single race group. Persons who indicated a single race other than the groups shown are included in the total for ‘‘One race’’ but are not shown separately due to small sample sizes. Therefore, the frequencies for the category ‘‘One race’’ will be greater than the sum of the frequencies for the specific groups shown separately. Persons of Hispanic or Latino origin may be of any race or combination of races. The tables in this report use the complete new OMB race and Hispanic origin terms, and the text uses shorter versions of these terms for conciseness. For example, the category ‘‘One race, Black or African American’’ in the tables is referred to as ‘‘black persons’’ in the text. 5



8 Shown only for persons aged 25 years and over. Estimates are age adjusted to the projected 2000 U.S. standard population using four age groups: 25–44 years, 45–64 years, 65–74 years, and 75 years and over. 9

GED is General Educational Development high school equivalency diploma. The categories ‘‘Less than $35,000’’ and ‘‘$35,000 or more’’ include both persons reporting dollar amounts and persons reporting only that their incomes were within one of these two categories (see Appendix I). The indented categories include only those persons who reported dollar amounts. Because of the different income questions used in 2007 and beyond, income estimates may not be comparable with those from earlier years. 10

Series 10, No. 252 [ Page 27 11

Based on family income and family size using the Census Bureau’s poverty thresholds for the previous calendar year. ‘‘Poor’’ persons are defined as below the poverty threshold. ‘‘Near poor’’ persons have incomes of 100% to less than 200% of the poverty threshold. ‘‘Not poor’’ persons have incomes that are 200% of the poverty threshold or greater. Because of the different income questions used in 2007 and beyond, poverty ratio estimates may not be comparable with those from earlier years. 12 Based on a hierarchy of mutually exclusive categories. Persons with more than one type of health insurance were assigned to the first appropriate category in the hierarchy. Persons under age 65 years and those aged 65 years and over were classified separately due to the predominance of Medicare coverage in the older population. The category ‘‘Private’’ includes persons who had any type of private coverage either alone or in combination with other coverage. For example, for persons aged 65 years and over, ‘‘Private’’ includes persons with only private coverage or private in combination with Medicare coverage. The category ‘‘Uninsured’’ includes persons who had no coverage as well as those who had only Indian Health Service coverage or had only a private plan that paid for one type of service such as accidents or dental care (see Appendix I). Estimates are age adjusted to the projected 2000 U.S. population as the standard population using two age groups for persons under age 65 (18–44 years and 45–64 years), and two age groups for persons aged 65 years and over (65–74 years and 75 years and over). 13 MSA is metropolitan statistical area. Large MSAs have a population size of 1 million or more; small MSAs have a population size of less than 1 million. ‘‘Not in MSA’’ consists of persons not living in a metropolitan statistical area.

NOTES: Estimates are based on household interviews of a sample of the civilian noninstitutionalized population. Unless otherwise specified, estimates are age adjusted to the projected 2000 U.S. population as the standard population using four age groups: 18–44 years, 45–64 years, 65–74 years, and 75 years and over. For crude percentages, refer to Table V in Appendix III. SOURCE: CDC/NCHS, National Health Interview Survey, 2010.

Category not applicable. * Estimates preceded by an asterisk have a relative standard error greater than 30% and less than or equal to 50% and should be used with caution as they do not meet standards of reliability or precision. † Estimates with a relative standard error greater than 50% are replaced with a dagger and are not shown. – Quantity zero. 1 Respondents were asked if they had ever been told by a doctor or other health professional that they had a cancer or malignancy of any kind. They were then asked to name the kind of cancer they had. A person may be represented in more than one column. 2 Unknowns for the rows or columns are not included in the frequencies (see Appendix I), but they are included in the ‘‘All persons aged 18 years and over’’ column. The numbers in this table are rounded. 3

Includes other races not shown separately and persons with unknown education, family income, poverty status, health insurance, and marital status characteristics.

4

In accordance with the 1997 standards for federal data on race and Hispanic or Latino origin (see Appendix II), the category ‘‘One race’’ refers to persons who indicated only a single race group. Persons who indicated a single race other than the groups shown are included in the total for ‘‘One race’’ but are not shown separately due to small sample sizes. Therefore, the frequencies for the category ‘‘One race’’ will be greater than the sum of the frequencies for the specific groups shown separately. Persons of Hispanic or Latino origin may be of any race or combination of races. The tables in this report use the current (1997) Office of Management and Budget race and Hispanic origin terms, and the text uses shorter versions of these terms for conciseness. For example, the category ‘‘One race, Black or African American’’ in the tables is referred to as ‘‘black persons’’ in the text. 5 Refers to all persons who indicated more than one race group. Only two combinations of multiple race groups are shown due to small sample sizes for other combinations. Therefore, the frequencies for the category ‘‘Two or more races’’ will be greater than the sum of the frequencies for the specific combinations shown separately. 6

They were then asked to name the kind of cancer they had. A person may be represented in more than one column. 2

Unknowns for the columns were not included in the denominators when calculating percentages (see Appendix I). Further, the denominators for calculating cervical cancer and prostate cancer percentages are sex-specific, while the denominators for calculating breast cancer percentages encompass all adults. Percentages may not add to totals due to rounding.

Estimates for age groups are not age adjusted. In accordance with the 1997 standards for federal data on race and Hispanic or Latino origin (see Appendix II), the category ‘‘One race’’ refers to persons who indicated only a single race group. Persons who indicated a single race other than the groups shown are included in the total for ‘‘One race’’ but are not shown separately due to small sample sizes. Therefore, the frequencies for the category ‘‘One race’’ will be greater than the sum of the frequencies for the specific groups shown separately. Persons of Hispanic or Latino origin may be of any race or combination of races. The tables in this report use the current (1997) Office of Management and Budget race and Hispanic origin terms, and the text uses shorter versions of these terms for conciseness. For example, the category ‘‘One race, Black or African American’’ in the tables is referred to as ‘‘black persons’’ in the text. 5

Series 10, No. 252 [ Page 33 12 Based on a hierarchy of mutually exclusive categories. Persons with more than one type of health insurance were assigned to the first appropriate category in the hierarchy. Persons under age 65 years and those aged 65 years and over were classified separately due to the predominance of Medicare coverage in the older population. The category ‘‘Private’’ includes persons who had any type of private coverage either alone or in combination with other coverage. For example, for persons aged 65 years and over, ‘‘Private’’ includes persons with only private coverage or private in combination with Medicare coverage. The category ‘‘Uninsured’’ includes persons who had no coverage as well as those who had only Indian Health Service coverage or had only a private plan that paid for one type of service such as accidents or dental care (see Appendix II). Estimates are age adjusted to the projected 2000 U.S. population as the standard population using two age groups for persons under age 65 (18–44 years and 45–64 years), and two age groups for persons aged 65 and over (65–74 years and 75 years and over). 13 MSA is metropolitan statistical area. Large MSAs have a population size of 1 million or more; small MSAs have a population size of less than 1 million. ‘‘Not in MSA’’ consists of persons not living in a metropolitan statistical area.

NOTES: Estimates are based on household interviews of a sample of the civilian noninstitutionalized population. Unless otherwise specified, estimates are age adjusted to the projected 2000 U.S. population as the standard population using four age groups: 18–44 years, 45–64 years, 65–74 years, and 75 years and over. For crude percentages, refer to Table VI in Appendix III. SOURCE: CDC/NCHS, National Health Interview Survey, 2010.

* Estimates preceded by an asterisk have a relative standard error greater than 30% and less than or equal to 50% and should be used with caution as they do not meet standards of reliability or precision. † Estimates with a relative standard error greater than 50% are replaced with a dagger and are not shown. – Quantity zero. 1 In separate questions, respondents were asked if they had ever been told by a doctor or other health professional that they had: an ulcer (including a stomach, duodenal, or peptic ulcer) or diabetes (or sugar diabetes; female respondents were instructed to exclude pregnancy-related diabetes). Responses from persons who said they had ‘‘borderline’’ diabetes were treated as unknown with respect to diabetes. A person may be represented in more than one column. 2 In separate questions, respondents were asked if they had been told in the last 12 months by a doctor or other health professional that they had: weak or failing kidneys (excluding kidney stones, bladder infections, or incontinence) or any kind of liver condition. 3 Respondents were asked if they had ever been told by a doctor or other health professional that they had some form of arthritis, rheumatoid arthritis, gout, lupus, or fibromyalgia. Those who answered yes were classified as having an arthritis diagnosis. Respondents were also asked: ‘‘During the past 30 days, have you had pain, aching, or stiffness in or around a joint?’’ (excluding back and neck) and, if yes, ‘‘Did your joint symptoms first begin more than 3 months ago?’’ Respondents with symptoms that began more than 3 months ago were classified in this table as having chronic joint symptoms. 4

Unknowns for the columns were not included in the frequencies (see Appendix I) but they are included in the ‘‘All persons aged 18 years and over’’ column. The numbers in this table are rounded. Includes other races not shown separately and persons with unknown education, family income, poverty status, health insurance, and marital status characteristics. 6 In accordance with the 1997 standards for federal data on race and Hispanic or Latino origin (see Appendix II), the category ‘‘One race’’ refers to persons who indicated only a single race group. Persons who indicated a single race other than the groups shown are included in the total for ‘‘One race’’ but are not shown separately due to small sample sizes. Therefore, the frequencies for the category ‘‘One race’’ will be greater than the sum of the frequencies for the specific groups shown separately. Persons of Hispanic or Latino origin may be of any race or combination of races. The tables in this report use the current (1997) Office of Management and Budget race and Hispanic origin terms, and the text uses shorter versions of these terms for conciseness. For example, the category ‘‘One race, Black or African American’’ in the tables is referred to as ‘‘black persons’’ in the text. 5

Page 36 [ Series 10, No. 252 11 The categories ‘‘Less than $35,000’’ and ‘‘$35,000 or more’’ include both persons reporting dollar amounts and persons reporting only that their incomes were within one of these two categories (see Appendix I). The indented categories include only those persons who reported dollar amounts. Because of the different income questions used in 2007 and beyond, income estimates may not be comparable with those from earlier years. 12

Unknowns for the columns were not included in the denominators when calculating percentages (see Appendix I). Percentages may not add to totals due to rounding. Includes other races not shown separately and persons with unknown education, family income, poverty status, health insurance, and marital status characteristics. 6 Estimates for age groups are not age adjusted. 7 In accordance with the 1997 standards for federal data on race and Hispanic or Latino origin (see Appendix II), the category ‘‘One race’’ refers to persons who indicated only a single race group. Persons who indicated a single race other than the groups shown are included in the total for ‘‘One race’’ but are not shown separately due to small sample sizes. Therefore, the frequencies for the category ‘‘One race’’ will be greater than the sum of the frequencies for the specific groups shown separately. Persons of Hispanic or Latino origin may be of any race or combination of races. The tables in this report use the current (1997) Office of Management and Budget race and Hispanic origin terms, and the text uses shorter versions of these terms for conciseness. For example, the category ‘‘One race, Black or African American’’ in the tables is referred to as ‘‘black persons’’ in the text. 5





Series 10, No. 252 [ Page 39 12 The categories ‘‘Less than $35,000’’ and ‘‘$35,000 or more’’ include both persons reporting dollar amounts and persons reporting only that their incomes were within one of these two categories (see Appendix I). The indented categories include only those persons who reported dollar amounts. Because of the different income questions used in 2007 and beyond, income estimates may not be comparable with those from earlier years. 13


NOTES: Estimates are based on household interviews of a sample of the civilian noninstitutionalized population. Unless otherwise specified, estimates are age adjusted to the projected 2000 U.S. population as the standard population using four age groups: 18–44 years, 45–64 years, 65–74 years, and 75 years and over. For crude percentages, refer to Table VII in Appendix III. SOURCE: CDC/NCHS, National Health Interview Survey, 2010.

* Estimates preceded by an asterisk have a relative standard error greater than 30% and less than or equal to 50%, and should be used with caution as they do not meet the standards of reliability or precision. † Estimates with a relative standard error greater than 50% are replaced with a dagger and are not shown. 1 Respondents were asked, ‘‘These next questions are about your hearing WITHOUT the use of hearing aids or other listening devices. Is your hearing excellent, good, [do you have] a little trouble hearing, moderate trouble, a lot of trouble, or are you deaf?’’ For this table, ‘‘a little trouble hearing,’’ ‘‘moderate trouble,’’ ‘‘a lot of trouble,’’ and ‘‘deaf’’ are combined into one category. Data analysts should note that this question contains more response levels than the 2006 version, which had the following categories: ‘‘good,’’ ‘‘a little trouble,’’ ‘‘a lot of trouble,’’ and ‘‘deaf.’’ In 2006, hearing trouble was defined by the following categories: ‘‘a little trouble,’’ ‘‘a lot of trouble,’’ and ‘‘deaf.’’ Estimates of hearing trouble for 2007 may not be comparable with earlier years. A person may be represented in more than one column. 2 Regarding their vision, respondents were asked, ‘‘Do you have any trouble seeing, even when wearing glasses or contact lenses?’’ Respondents were also asked, ‘‘Are you blind or unable to see at all?’’ For this table, ‘‘any trouble seeing’’ and ‘‘blind’’ are combined into one category. A person may be represented in more than one column. 3

Respondents were asked, ‘‘Have you lost all of your upper and lower natural (permanent) teeth?’’ A person may be represented in more than one column. Unknowns for the columns were not included in the frequencies (see Appendix I) but they are included in the ‘‘All persons aged 18 years and over’’ column. The numbers in this table are rounded. 5 Includes other races not shown separately and persons with unknown education, family income, poverty status, health insurance, and marital status characteristics. 6 In accordance with the 1997 standards for federal data on race and Hispanic or Latino origin (see Appendix II), the category ‘‘One race’’ refers to persons who indicated only a single race group. Persons who indicated a single race other than the groups shown are included in the total for ‘‘One race’’ but are not shown separately due to small sample sizes. Therefore, the frequencies for the category ‘‘One race’’ will be greater than the sum of the frequencies for the specific groups shown separately. Persons of Hispanic or Latino origin may be of any race or combination of races. The tables in this report use the current (1997) Office of Management and Budget race and Hispanic origin terms, and the text uses shorter versions of these terms for conciseness. For example, the category ‘‘One race, Black or African American’’ in the tables is referred to as ‘‘black persons’’ in the text. 4

† Estimates with a relative standard error greater than 50% are replaced with a dagger and are not shown. * Estimates preceded by an asterisk have a relative standard error greater than 30% and less than or equal to 50% and should be used with caution as they do not meet standards of reliability or precision. 1 Respondents were asked, ‘‘These next questions are about your hearing WITHOUT the use of hearing aids or other listening devices. Is your hearing excellent, good, [do you have] a little trouble hearing, moderate trouble, a lot of trouble, or are you deaf?’’ For this table, ‘‘a little trouble hearing,’’ ‘‘moderate trouble,’’ ‘‘a lot of trouble,’’ and ‘‘deaf’’ are combined into one category. Data analysts should note that this question contains more response levels that the 2006 version, which had the following categories: ‘‘good,’’ ‘‘a little trouble,’’ ‘‘a lot of trouble,’’ and ‘‘deaf.’’ In 2006, hearing trouble was defined by the following categories: ‘‘a little trouble,’’ ‘‘a lot of trouble,’’ and ‘‘deaf.’’ Estimates of hearing trouble for 2007 may not be comparable with earlier years. A person may be represented in more than one column. 2 Regarding their vision, respondents were asked, ‘‘Do you have any trouble seeing, even when wearing glasses or contact lenses?’’ Respondents were also asked, ‘‘Are you blind or unable to see at all?’’ For this table, ‘‘any trouble seeing’’ and ‘‘blind’’ are combined into one category. A person may be represented in more than one column. 3

Respondents were asked, ‘‘Have you lost all of your upper and lower natural (permanent) teeth?’’ A person may be represented in more than one column. Unknowns for the columns were not included in the denominators when calculating percentages (see Appendix I). Percentages may not add to totals due to rounding. 5 Includes other races not shown separately and persons with unknown education, family income, poverty status, health insurance, and marital status characteristics. 6 Estimates for age groups are not age adjusted. 7 In accordance with the 1997 standards for federal data on race and Hispanic or Latino origin (see Appendix II), the category ‘‘One race’’ refers to persons who indicated only a single race group. Persons who indicated a single race other than the groups shown are included in the total for ‘‘One race’’ but are not shown separately due to small sample sizes. Therefore, the frequencies for the category ‘‘One race’’ will be greater than the sum of the frequencies for the specific groups shown separately. Persons of Hispanic or Latino origin may be of any race or combination of races. The tables in this report use the current (1997) Office of Management and Budget race and Hispanic origin terms, and the text uses shorter versions of these terms for conciseness. For example, the category ‘‘One race, Black or African American’’ in the tables is referred to as ‘‘black persons’’ in the text. 4

NOTES: Estimates are based on household interviews of a sample of the civilian noninstitutionalized population. Unless otherwise specified, estimates are age adjusted to the projected 2000 U.S. population as the standard population using four age groups: 18–44 years, 45–64 years, 65–74 years, and 75 years and over. For crude percentages, refer to Table IX in Appendix III. SOURCE: CDC/NCHS, National Health Interview Survey, 2010.

* Estimates preceded by an asterisk have a relative standard error greater than 30% and less than or equal to 50% and should be used with caution as they do not meet standards of reliability or precision. † Estimates with a relative standard error greater than 50% are replaced with a dagger and are not shown. – Quantity zero. 1 In four separate questions, respondents were asked how often in the past 30 days they felt: so sad that nothing could cheer them up, hopeless, worthless, or that everything was an effort. Respondents could choose from among five response categories: ‘‘All of the time,’’ ‘‘Most of the time,’’ ‘‘Some of the time,’’ ‘‘A little of the time,’’ or ‘‘None of the time.’’ For this table, ‘‘All’’ and ‘‘Most’’ are combined, and ‘‘Some’’ is shown separately. 2

Unknowns for the columns were not included in the frequencies (see Appendix I) but they are included in the ‘‘All persons aged 18 years and over’’ column. The numbers in this table are rounded.

Includes other races not shown separately and persons with unknown education, family income, poverty status, health insurance, and marital status characteristics. In accordance with the 1997 standards for federal data on race and Hispanic or Latino origin (see Appendix II), the category ‘‘One race’’ refers to persons who indicated only a single race group. Persons who indicated a single race other than the groups shown are included in the total for ‘‘One race’’ but are not shown separately due to small sample sizes. Therefore, the frequencies for the category ‘‘One race’’ will be greater than the sum of the frequencies for the specific groups shown separately. Persons of Hispanic or Latino origin may be of any race or combination of races. The tables in this report use the current (1997) Office of Management and Budget race and Hispanic origin terms, and the text uses shorter versions of these terms for conciseness. For example, the category ‘‘One race, Black or African American’’ in the tables is referred to as ‘‘black persons’’ in the text. 4

9 The categories ‘‘Less than $35,000’’ and ‘‘$35,000 or more’’ include both persons reporting dollar amounts and persons reporting only that their incomes were within one of these two categories (see Appendix I). The indented categories include only those persons who reported dollar amounts. Because of the different income questions used in 2007 and beyond, income estimates may not be comparable with those from earlier years.

Based on family income and family size using the U.S. Census Bureau’s poverty thresholds for the previous calendar year. ‘‘Poor’’ persons are defined as below the poverty threshold. ‘‘Near poor’’ persons have incomes of 100% to less than 200% of the poverty threshold. ‘‘Not poor’’ persons have incomes that are 200% of the poverty threshold or greater. Because of the different income questions used in 2007 and beyond, poverty ratio estimates may not be comparable with those from earlier years. 12 Based on a hierarchy of mutually exclusive categories. Persons with more than one type of health insurance were assigned to the first appropriate category in the hierarchy. Persons under age 65 years and those aged 65 years and over were classified separately due to the predominance of Medicare coverage in the older population. The category ‘‘Private’’ includes persons who had any type of private coverage either alone or in combination with other coverage. For example, for persons aged 65 years and over, ‘‘Private’’ includes persons with only private coverage or private in combination with Medicare coverage. The category ‘‘Uninsured’’ includes persons who had no coverage as well as those who had only Indian Health Service coverage or had only a private plan that paid for one type of service such as accidents or dental care (see Appendix II). Estimates are age adjusted to the projected 2000 U.S. population as the standard population using two age groups for persons under age 65 years (18–44 years and 45–64 years), and two age groups for persons aged 65 years and over (65–74 years and 75 years and over). 13 MSA is metropolitan statistical area. Large MSAs have a population size of 1 million or more; small MSAs have a population size of less than 1 million. ‘‘Not in MSA’’ consists of persons not living in a metropolitan statistical area.

NOTES: Estimates are based on household interviews of a sample of the civilian noninstitutionalized population. Unless otherwise specified, estimates are age adjusted to the projected 2000 U.S. population as the standard population using four age groups: 18–44 years, 45–64 years, 65–74 years, and 75 years and over. For crude percentages, refer to Table X in Appendix III. SOURCE: CDC/NCHS, National Health Interview Survey, 2010.

The categories ‘‘Less than $35,000’’ and ‘‘$35,000 or more’’ include both persons reporting dollar amounts and persons reporting only that their incomes were within one of these two categories (see Appendix I). The indented categories include only those persons who reported dollar amounts. Because of the different income questions used in 2007 and beyond, income estimates may not be comparable with those from earlier years. 11


Series 10, No. 252 [ Page 63 12 Based on a hierarchy of mutually exclusive categories. Persons with more than one type of health insurance were assigned to the first appropriate category in the hierarchy. Persons under age 65 years and those aged 65 years and over were classified separately due to the predominance of Medicare coverage in the older population. The category ‘‘Private’’ includes persons who had any type of private coverage either alone or in combination with other coverage. For example, for persons aged 65 years and over, ‘‘Private’’ includes persons with only private coverage or private in combination with Medicare coverage. The category ‘‘Uninsured’’ includes persons who had no coverage as well as those who had only Indian Health Service coverage or had only a private plan that paid for one type of service such as accidents or dental care (see Appendix II). Estimates are age adjusted to the projected 2000 U.S. population as the standard population using two age groups for persons under age 65 (18–44 years and 45–64 years), and two age groups for persons aged 65 and over (65–74 years and 75 years and over). 13 MSA is metropolitan statistical area. Large MSAs have a population size of 1 million or more; small MSAs have a population size of less than 1 million. ‘‘Not in MSA’’ consists of persons not living in a metropolitan statistical area.

NOTES: Estimates are based on household interviews of a sample of the civilian noninstitutionalized population. Unless otherwise specified, estimates are age adjusted to the projected 2000 U.S. population as the standard population using four age groups: 18–44 years, 45–64 years, 65–74 years, and 75 years and over. For crude percentages, refer to Table XI in Appendix III. SOURCE: CDC/NCHS, National Health Interview Survey, 2010.

* Estimates preceded by an asterisk have a relative standard error greater than 30% and less than or equal to 50% and should be used with caution as they do not meet standards of reliability or precision. †Estimates with a relative standard error greater than 50% are replaced with a dagger and are not shown. 1 Respondents who had worked during the past year were asked, ‘‘During the past 12 months, about how many days did you miss work at a job or business because of illness or injury (do not include maternity leave)?’’ In addition, all respondents were asked, ‘‘During the past 12 months, about how many days did illness or injury keep you in the bed more than half of the day (include days while an overnight patient in a hospital)?’’ 2 Unknowns for the columns ‘‘Work-loss days in past 12 months’’ and ‘‘Bed days in past 12 months’’ were not included in the denominators when calculating rates in the columns for ‘‘days per person’’ (see Appendix I). They are, however, included in the columns ‘‘All employed persons aged 18 years and over’’ and ‘‘All persons aged 18 years and over.’’ The numbers in this table are rounded. 3 Includes other races not shown separately and persons with unknown education, family income, poverty status, health insurance, and marital status characteristics. 4 In accordance with the 1997 standards for federal data on race and Hispanic or Latino origin (see Appendix II), the category ‘‘One race’’ refers to persons who indicated only a single race group. Persons who indicated a single race other than the groups shown are included in the total for ‘‘One race’’ but are not shown separately due to small sample sizes. Therefore, the frequencies for the category ‘‘One race’’ will be greater than the sum of the frequencies for the specific groups shown separately. Persons of Hispanic or Latino origin may be of any race or combination of races. The tables in this report use the current (1997) Office of Management and Budget race and Hispanic origin terms, and the text uses shorter versions of these terms for conciseness. For example, the category ‘‘One race, Black or African American’’ in the tables is referred to as ‘‘black persons’’ in the text. 5 Refers to all persons who indicated more than one race group. Only two combinations of multiple race groups are shown due to small sample sizes for other combinations. Therefore, the frequencies for the category ‘‘Two or more races’’ will be greater than the sum of the frequencies for the specific combinations shown separately. 6

Shown only for persons aged 25 years and over. GED is General Educational Development high school equivalency diploma. The categories ‘‘Less than $35,000’’ and ‘‘$35,000 or more’’ include both persons reporting dollar amounts and persons reporting only that their incomes were within one of these two categories (see Appendix I). The indented categories include only those persons who reported dollar amounts. Because of the different income questions used in 2007 and beyond, income estimates may not be comparable with those from earlier years. 8 9

* Estimates preceded by an asterisk have a relative standard error greater than 30% and less than or equal to 50% and should be used with caution as they do not meet standards of reliability or precision. † Estimates with a relative standard error greater than 50% are replaced with a dagger and are not shown. – Quantity zero. 1 In a series of separate questions, respondents were asked the degree of difficulty they experienced performing nine physical activities by themselves and without using any special equipment. The activities included walking a quarter of a mile (or three city blocks); standing for 2 hours; stooping, bending, or kneeling; climbing 10 steps without resting; sitting for 2 hours; reaching over one’s head; using one’s fingers to grasp or handle small objects; lifting or carrying a 10-pound object (such as a full bag of groceries); and pushing or pulling a large object (such as a living room chair). The response categories consisted of ‘‘not at all difficult,’’ ‘‘only a little difficult,’’ ‘‘somewhat difficult,’’ ‘‘very difficult,’’ ‘‘can’t do at all,’’ or ‘‘do not do this activity.’’ For this table, response categories ‘‘very difficult’’ and ‘‘can’t do at all’’ are combined and shown in the columns. 2

Consists of a ‘‘very difficult’’ or ‘‘can’t do at all’’ response to at least one of the nine physical activities shown in columns 4–12. Frequencies of persons reporting no difficulty in physical functioning, ‘‘only a little’’ or ‘‘some’’ difficulty, or that they ‘‘do not do this activity,’’ and those for whom the information is unknown (see Appendix I), are not shown separately but are included in the ‘‘All persons aged 18 years and over’’ column. Numbers in this table are rounded. 3

4

Includes other races not shown separately and persons with unknown education, family income, poverty status, health insurance, and marital status characteristics. In accordance with the 1997 Standards for Federal data on race and Hispanic or Latino origin (see Appendix II), the category ‘‘One race’’ refers to persons who indicated only a single race group. Persons who indicated a single race other than the groups shown are included in the total for ‘‘One race’’ but are not shown separately due to small sample sizes. Therefore, the frequencies for the category ‘‘One race’’ will be greater than the sum of the frequencies for the specific groups shown separately. Persons of Hispanic or Latino origin may be of any race or combination of races. The tables in this report use the current (1997) Office of Management and Budget race and Hispanic origin terms, and the text uses shorter versions of these terms for conciseness. For example, the category ‘‘One race, Black or African American’’ in the tables is referred to as ‘‘black persons’’ in the text. 5

* Estimates preceded by an asterisk have a relative standard error greater than 30% and less than or equal to 50% and should be used with caution as they do not meet standards of reliability or precision. † Estimates with a relative standard error greater than 50% are replaced with a dagger and are not shown. – Quantity zero. 1 In a series of separate questions, respondents were asked the degree of difficulty they experienced performing nine physical activities by themselves, and without using any special equipment. The activities included walking a quarter of a mile (or three city blocks); standing for 2 hours; stooping, bending, or kneeling; climbing 10 steps without resting; sitting for 2 hours; reaching over one’s head; using one’s fingers to grasp or handle small objects; lifting or carrying a 10-pound object (such as a full bag of groceries); and pushing or pulling a large object (such as a living room chair). The response categories consisted of ‘‘not at all difficult,’’ ‘‘only a little difficult,’’ ‘‘somewhat difficult,’’ ‘‘very difficult,’’ ‘‘can’t do at all,’’ or ‘‘do not do this activity.’’ For this table, response categories ‘‘very difficult’’ and ‘‘can’t do at all’’ are combined and shown in the columns. 2

Consists of a ‘‘very difficult’’ or ‘‘can’t do at all’’ response to at least one of the nine physical activities shown in columns 3–11.

3

Persons who respond ‘‘do not do this activity,’’ as well as those for whom the information is unknown, are not included in the denominator when calculating percentages. Percentages in this table are rounded. Includes other races not shown separately and persons with unknown education, family income, poverty status, health insurance, and marital status characteristics.

Estimates for age groups are not age adjusted.

6

In accordance with the 1997 standards for federal data on race and Hispanic or Latino origin (see Appendix II), the category ‘‘One race’’ refers to persons who indicated only a single race group. Persons who indicated a single race other than the groups shown are included in the total for ‘‘One race’’ but are not shown separately due to small sample sizes. Therefore, the frequencies for the category ‘‘One race’’ will be greater than the sum of the frequencies for the specific groups shown separately. Persons of Hispanic or Latino origin may be of any race or combination of races. The tables in this report use the current (1997) Office of Management and Budget race and Hispanic origin terms, and the text uses shorter versions of these terms for conciseness. For example, the category ‘‘One race, Black or African American’’ in the tables is referred to as ‘‘black persons’’ in the text. 7 Refers to all persons who indicated more than one race group. Only two combinations of multiple race groups are shown due to small sample sizes for other combinations. Therefore, the frequencies for the category ‘‘Two or more races’’ will be greater than the sum of the frequencies for the specific combinations shown separately. 8

Persons of Hispanic or Latino origin may be of any race or combination of races. Similarly, the category ‘‘Not Hispanic or Latino’’ refers to all persons who are not of Hispanic or Latino origin, regardless of race. Shown only for persons aged 25 years and over. Estimates are age adjusted to the projected 2000 U.S. standard population using four age groups: 25–44 years, 45–64 years, 65–74 years, and 75 years and over. 10 GED is General Educational Development high school equivalency diploma. 11 The categories ‘‘Less than $35,000’’ and ‘‘$35,000 or more’’ include both persons reporting dollar amounts and persons reporting only that their incomes were within one of these two categories (see Appendix I). The indented categories include only those persons who reported dollar amounts. Because of the different income questions used in 2007 and beyond, income estimates may not be comparable with those from earlier years. 9

12 Based on family income and family size using the U.S. Census Bureau’s poverty thresholds for the previous calendar year. ‘‘Poor’’ persons are defined as below the poverty threshold. ‘‘Near poor’’ persons have incomes of 100% to less than 200% of the poverty threshold. ‘‘Not poor’’ persons have incomes that are 200% of the poverty threshold or greater. Because of the different income questions used in 2007 and beyond, poverty ratio estimates may not be comparable with those from earlier years. 13 Based on a hierarchy of mutually exclusive categories. Persons with more than one type of health insurance were assigned to the first appropriate category in the hierarchy. Persons under age 65 years and those aged 65 years and over were classified separately due to the predominance of Medicare coverage in the older population. The category ‘‘Private’’ includes persons who had any type of private coverage either alone or in combination with other coverage. For example, for persons aged 65 years and over, ‘‘Private’’ includes persons with only private coverage or private in combination with Medicare coverage. The category ‘‘Uninsured’’ includes persons who had no coverage as well as those who had only Indian Health Service coverage or had only a private plan that paid for one type of service such as accidents or dental care (see Appendix II). Estimates are age adjusted to the projected 2000 U.S. population as the standard population using two age groups for persons under age 65 (18–44 years and 45–64 years), and two age groups for persons aged 65 years and over (65–74 years and 75 years and over). 14

MSA is metropolitan statistical area. Large MSAs have a population size of 1 million or more; small MSAs have a population size of less than 1 million. ‘‘Not in MSA’’ consists of persons not living in a metropolitan statistical area.

NOTES: Estimates are based on household interviews of a sample of the civilian noninstitutionalized population. Unless otherwise specified, estimates are age adjusted to the projected 2000 U.S. population as the standard population using four age groups: 18–44 years, 45–64 years, 65–74 years, and 75 years and over. For crude percentages, refer to Table XII in Appendix III. SOURCE: CDC/NCHS, National Health Interview Survey, 2010.

* Estimates preceded by an asterisk have a relative standard error greater than 30% and less than or equal to 50% and should be used with caution as they do not meet standards of reliability or precision. 1 Based on a question in the survey that asked respondents, ‘‘Would you say [subject name’s] health in general was excellent, very good, good, fair, or poor?’’ This information was obtained during a part of the interview that allowed proxy responses, such that a knowledgeable adult family member could respond on behalf of adults not taking part in the interview; however, the sample in this table is based on the reported health status (possibly by proxy) for the Sample Adult only. ‘‘Excellent’’ and ‘‘very good’’ are combined in this table, as are ‘‘fair’’ and ‘‘poor.’’ 2 Unknowns for the columns were not included in the frequency distributions (see Appendix I). They are, however, included in the ‘‘All persons aged 18 years and over’’ column. Numbers may not add to totals due to rounding. 3

* Estimates preceded by an asterisk have a relative standard error greater than 30% and less than or equal to 50% and should be used with caution as they do not meet standards of reliability or precision. 1 Based on a question in the survey that asked respondents, ‘‘Would you say [subject name’s] health in general was excellent, very good, good, fair, or poor?’’ This information was obtained during a part of the interview that allowed proxy responses, such that a knowledgeable adult family member could respond on behalf of adults not taking part in the interview; however, the sample in this table is based on the reported health status (possibly by proxy) for the Sample Adult only. ‘‘Excellent’’ and ‘‘very good’’ are combined in this table, as are ‘‘fair’’ and ‘‘poor.’’ 2

Unknowns for the columns were not included in the denominators when calculating percentages (see Appendix I). Percentages may not add to totals due to rounding.

Includes other races not shown separately and persons with unknown education, family income, poverty status, health insurance, and marital status characteristics. Estimates for age groups are not age adjusted. 5 In accordance with the 1997 standards for federal data on race and Hispanic or Latino origin (see Appendix II), the category ‘‘One race’’ refers to persons who indicated only a single race group. Persons who indicated a single race other than the groups shown are included in the total for ‘‘One race’’ but are not shown separately due to small sample sizes. Therefore, the frequencies for the category ‘‘One race’’ will be greater than the sum of the frequencies for the specific groups shown separately. Persons of Hispanic or Latino origin may be of any race or combination of races. The tables in this report use the current (1997) Office of Management and Budget race and Hispanic origin terms, and the text uses shorter versions of these terms for conciseness. For example, the category ‘‘One race, Black or African American’’ in the tables is referred to as ‘‘black persons’’ in the text. 4



8 Shown only for persons aged 25 years and over. Estimates are age adjusted to the projected 2000 U.S. standard population using four age groups (25–44 years, 45–64 years, 65–74 years, and 75 years and over). 9


10

The categories ‘‘Less than $35,000’’ and ‘‘$35,000 or more’’ include both persons reporting dollar amounts and persons reporting only that their incomes were within one of these two categories (see Appendix I). The indented categories include only those persons who reported dollar amounts. Because of the different income questions used in 2007 and beyond, income estimates may not be comparable with those from earlier years.

Page 78 [ Series 10, No. 252 11

Based on family income and family size using the U.S. Census Bureau’s poverty thresholds for the previous calendar year. ‘‘Poor’’ persons are defined as below the poverty threshold. ‘‘Near poor’’ persons have incomes of 100% to less than 200% of the poverty threshold. ‘‘Not poor’’ persons have incomes that are 200% of the poverty threshold or greater. Because of the different income questions used in 2007 and beyond, poverty ratio estimates may not be comparable with those from earlier years. 12 Based on a hierarchy of mutually exclusive categories. Persons with more than one type of health insurance were assigned to the first appropriate category in the hierarchy. Persons under age 65 years and those aged 65 years and over were classified separately due to the predominance of Medicare coverage in the older population. The category ‘‘Private’’ includes persons who had any type of private coverage either alone or in combination with other coverage. For example, for persons aged 65 years and over, ‘‘Private’’ includes persons with only private coverage or private in combination with Medicare coverage. The category ‘‘Uninsured’’ includes persons who had no coverage as well as those who had only Indian Health Service coverage or had only a private plan that paid for one type of service such as accidents or dental care (see Appendix II). Estimates are age adjusted to the projected 2000 U.S. population as the standard population using two age groups for persons under age 65 (18–44 years and 45–64 years), and two age groups for persons aged 65 and over (65–74 years and 75 years and over). 13 MSA is metropolitan statistical area. Large MSAs have a population size of 1 million or more; small MSAs have a population size of less than 1 million. ‘‘Not in MSA’’ consists of persons not living in a metropolitan statistical area.

NOTES: Estimates are based on household interviews of a sample of the civilian noninstitutionalized population. Unless otherwise specified, estimates are age adjusted to the projected 2000 U.S. population as the standard population using four age groups: 18–44 years, 45–64 years, 65–74 years, and 75 years and over.

* Estimates preceded by an asterisk have a relative standard error greater than 30% and less than or equal to 50% and should be used with caution as they do not meet standards of reliability or precision. † Estimates with a relative standard error greater than 50% are replaced with a dagger and are not shown. – Quantity zero. 1 Based on a survey question that asked respondents, ‘‘Would you say [subject name’s] health in general is excellent, very good, good, fair, or poor?’’ Proxy responses were allowed for adults not taking part in this portion of the interview; however, the sample in this table is based on the reported health status (possibly by proxy) for the Sample Adult only. ‘‘Excellent’’ and ‘‘very good’’ are combined in this table, as are ‘‘fair’’ and ‘‘poor.’’ All sample adult respondents were also asked, ‘‘Compared with twelve months ago, would you say your health is better, worse, or about the same?’’ 2

Unknowns for the columns were not included in the frequency distributions (see Appendix I). They are, however, included in the ‘‘All persons aged 18 years and over’’ column. Numbers may not add to totals because of rounding. Includes other races not shown separately and persons with unknown education, family income, poverty status, health insurance, and marital status characteristics. 4 In accordance with the 1997 standards for federal data on race and Hispanic or Latino origin (see Appendix II), the category ‘‘One race’’ refers to persons who indicated only a single race group. Persons who indicated a single race other than the groups shown are included in the total for ‘‘One race’’ but are not shown separately due to small sample sizes. Therefore, the frequencies for the category ‘‘One race’’ will be greater than the sum of the frequencies for the specific groups shown separately. Persons of Hispanic or Latino origin may be of any race or combination of races. The tables in this report use the current (1997) Office of Management and Budget race and Hispanic origin terms, and the text uses shorter versions of these terms for conciseness. For example, the category ‘‘One race, Black or African American’’ in the tables is referred to as ‘‘black persons’’ in the text. 3


Persons of Hispanic or Latino origin may be of any race or combination of races. Similarly, the category ‘‘Not Hispanic or Latino’’ refers to all persons who are not of Hispanic or Latino origin, regardless of race. Shown only for persons aged 25 years and over. 8 GED is General Educational Development high school equivalency diploma. 9 The categories ‘‘Less than $35,000’’ and ‘‘$35,000 or more’’ include both persons reporting dollar amounts and persons reporting only that their incomes were within one of these two categories (see Appendix I). The indented categories include only those persons who reported dollar amounts. Because of the different income questions used in 2007 and beyond, income estimates may not be comparable with those from earlier years. 7

10 Based on family income and family size using the U.S. Census Bureau’s poverty thresholds for the previous calendar year. ‘‘Poor’’ persons are defined as below the poverty threshold. ‘‘Near poor’’ persons have incomes of 100% to less than 200% of the poverty threshold. ‘‘Not poor’’ persons have incomes that are 200% of the poverty threshold or greater. Because of the different income questions used in 2007 and beyond, poverty ratio estimates may not be comparable with those from earlier years.

12




11 Based on a hierarchy of mutually exclusive categories. Persons with more than one type of health insurance were assigned to the first appropriate category in the hierarchy. Persons under age 65 years and those aged 65 years and over were classified separately due to the predominance of Medicare coverage in the older population. The category ‘‘Private’’ includes persons who had any type of private coverage either alone or in combination with other coverage. For example, for persons aged 65 years and over, ‘‘Private’’ includes persons with only private coverage or private in combination with Medicare coverage. The category ‘‘Uninsured’’ includes persons who had no coverage as well as those who had only Indian Health Service coverage or had only a private plan that paid for one type of service such as accidents or dental care (see Appendix II).

Persons of Hispanic or Latino origin may be of any race or combination of races. Similarly, the category ‘‘Not Hispanic or Latino’’ refers to all persons who are not of Hispanic or Latino origin, regardless of race. Shown only for persons aged 25 years and over. Estimates are age adjusted to the projected 2000 U.S. standard population using four age groups (25–44 years, 45–64 years, 65–74 years, and 75 years and over). 9 GED is General Educational Development high school equivalency diploma. 10 The categories ‘‘Less than $35,000’’ and ‘‘$35,000 or more’’ include both persons reporting dollar amounts and persons reporting only that their incomes were within one of these two categories (see Appendix I). The indented categories include only those persons who reported dollar amounts. Because of the different income questions used in 2007 and beyond, income estimates may not be comparable with those from earlier years. 8

11 Based on family income and family size using the U.S. Census Bureau’s poverty thresholds for the previous calendar year. ‘‘Poor’’ persons are defined as below the poverty threshold. ‘‘Near poor’’ persons have incomes of 100% to less than 200% of the poverty threshold. ‘‘Not poor’’ persons have incomes that are 200% of the poverty threshold or greater. Because of the different income questions used in 2007 and beyond, poverty ratio estimates may not be comparable with those from earlier years. 12 Based on a hierarchy of mutually exclusive categories. Persons with more than one type of health insurance were assigned to the first appropriate category in the hierarchy. Persons under age 65 years and those aged 65 years and over were classified separately due to the predominance of Medicare coverage in the older population. The category ‘‘Private’’ includes persons who had any type of private coverage either alone or in combination with other coverage. For example, for persons aged 65 years and over, ‘‘Private’’ includes persons with only private coverage or private in combination with Medicare coverage. The category ‘‘Uninsured’’ includes persons who had no coverage as well as those who had only Indian Health Service coverage or had only a private plan that paid for one type of service such as accidents or dental care (see Appendix II). Estimates are age adjusted to the projected 2000 U.S. population as the standard population using two age groups for persons under age 65 (18–44 years and 45–64 years), and two age groups for persons aged 65 and over (65–74 years and 75 years and over). 13


NOTES: Estimates are based on household interviews of a sample of the civilian noninstitutionalized population. Unless otherwise specified, estimates are age adjusted to the projected 2000 U.S. population as the standard population using four age groups: 18–44 years, 45–64 years, 65–74 years, and 75 years and over. For crude percentages, refer to Table XIV in Appendix III. SOURCE: CDC/NCHS, National Health Interview Survey, 2010.

* Estimates preceded by an asterisk have a relative standard error greater than 30% and less than or equal to 50% and should be used with caution as they do not meet standards of reliability or precision. † Estimates with a relative standard error greater than 50% are replaced with a dagger and are not shown. 1

Based on two survey questions: ‘‘Have you smoked at least 100 cigarettes in your entire life?’’ and ‘‘Do you now smoke cigarettes every day, some days, or not at all?’’ Current smokers have smoked at least 100 cigarettes in their lifetime and still currently smoke; every day smokers are current smokers who smoke every day; and some day smokers are current smokers who smoke on some days. 2

3

Persons who have smoked at least 100 cigarettes in their lifetime but currently do not smoke at all. Persons who have never smoked at least 100 cigarettes in their lifetime. 5 Unknowns for the columns were not included in the frequency distributions (see Appendix I), but they are included in the ‘‘All persons aged 18 years and over’’ column. Numbers may not add to totals due to rounding. 4

Persons who have smoked at least 100 cigarettes in their lifetime but currently do not smoke at all. Persons who have never smoked at least 100 cigarettes in their lifetime. 5 Unknowns for the columns were not included in the denominators when calculating percentages (see Appendix I). Percentages may not add to totals due to rounding. 6 Includes other races not shown separately and persons with unknown education, family income, poverty status, health insurance, and marital status characteristics. 7 Estimates for age groups are not age adjusted. 8 In accordance with the 1997 standards for federal data on race and Hispanic or Latino origin (see Appendix II), the category ‘‘One race’’ refers to persons who indicated only a single race group. Persons who indicated a single race other than the groups shown are included in the total for ‘‘One race’’ but are not shown separately due to small sample sizes. Therefore, the frequencies for the category ‘‘One race’’ will be greater than the sum of the frequencies for the specific groups shown separately. Persons of Hispanic or Latino origin may be of any race or combination of races. The tables in this report use the current (1997) Office of Management and Budget race and Hispanic origin terms, and the text uses shorter versions of these terms for conciseness. For example, the category ‘‘One race, Black or African American’’ in the tables is referred to as ‘‘black persons’’ in the text. 4



Page 90 [ Series 10, No. 252 11 Shown only for persons aged 25 years and over. Estimates are age adjusted to the projected 2000 U.S. standard population using four age groups: 25–44 years, 45–64 years, 65–74 years, and 75 years and over. 12

Based on family income and family size using the U.S. Census Bureau’s poverty thresholds for the previous calendar year. ‘‘Poor’’ persons are defined as below the poverty threshold. ‘‘Near poor’’ persons have incomes of 100% to less than 200% of the poverty threshold. ‘‘Not poor’’ persons have incomes that are 200% of the poverty threshold or greater. Because of the different income questions used in 2007 and beyond, poverty ratio estimates may not be comparable with those from earlier years. 15 Based on a hierarchy of mutually exclusive categories. Persons with more than one type of health insurance were assigned to the first appropriate category in the hierarchy. Persons under age 65 years and those aged 65 years and over were classified separately due to the predominance of Medicare coverage in the older population. The category ‘‘Private’’ includes persons who had any type of private coverage either alone or in combination with other coverage. For example, for persons aged 65 years and over, ‘‘Private’’ includes persons with only private coverage or private in combination with Medicare coverage. The category ‘‘Uninsured’’ includes persons who had no coverage as well as those who had only Indian Health Service coverage or had only a private plan that paid for one type of service such as accidents or dental care (see Appendix II). Estimates are age adjusted to the projected 2000 U.S. population as the standard population using two age groups for persons under age 65 (18–44 years and 45–64 years), and two age groups for persons age 65 and over (65–74 years and 75 years and over). 16 MSA is metropolitan statistical area. Large MSAs have a population size of 1 million or more; small MSAs have a population size of less than 1 million. ‘‘Not in MSA’’ consists of persons not living in a metropolitan statistical area.

NOTES: Estimates are based on household interviews of a sample of the civilian noninstitutionalized population. Unless otherwise specified, estimates are age adjusted to the projected 2000 U.S. population as the standard population using four age groups: 18–44 years, 45–64 years, 65–74 years, and 75 years and over.

* Estimates preceded by an asterisk have a relative standard error greater than 30% and less than or equal to 50% and should be used with caution as they do not meet standards of reliability or precision. †Estimates with a relative standard error greater than 50% are replaced with a dagger and are not shown. 1 Derived from several source questions: ‘‘In ANY ONE YEAR, have you had at least 12 drinks of any type of alcoholic beverage?’’; ‘‘In your ENTIRE LIFE, have you had at least 12 drinks of any type of alcoholic beverage?’’; and ‘‘In the PAST YEAR, how often did you drink any type of alcoholic beverage?’’ 2 Categories are based on the same definitions used in the ‘‘Health, United States’’ publications (see Appendix II) and are derived from respondents’ self-reported responses to a series of questions about alcohol consumption. A lifetime abstainer had fewer than 12 drinks in his or her lifetime; a former drinker had at least 12 drinks in his or her lifetime or in any 1 year AND had no drink in the past year; and a current drinker had at least 12 drinks in his or her lifetime or in any 1 year AND had a drink 1–365 times in the past year. 3 Former infrequent drinkers had at least 12 drinks in their lifetime but fewer than 12 drinks in any 1 year and no drinks in the last year. Former regular drinkers had at least 12 drinks in any 1 year and no drinks in the last year. Current infrequent drinkers had at least 12 drinks in their lifetime and fewer than 12 drinks in the past year, and current regular drinkers had at least 12 drinks in the past year. Former and current drinkers for whom the frequency of consumption or amount consumed was unknown are not included. 4 Unknowns for the columns were not included in the frequency distributions (see Appendix I), but they are included in the ‘‘All persons aged 18 years and over’’ column. Numbers may not add to totals due to rounding. 5 Includes other races not shown separately and persons with unknown education, family income, poverty status, health insurance, and marital status characteristics. 6 In accordance with the 1997 standards for federal data on race and Hispanic or Latino origin (see Appendix II), the category ‘‘One race’’ refers to persons who indicated only a single race group. Persons who indicated a single race other than the groups shown are included in the total for ‘‘One race’’ but are not shown separately due to small sample sizes. Therefore, the frequencies for the category ‘‘One race’’ will be greater than the sum of the frequencies for the specific groups shown separately. Persons of Hispanic or Latino origin may be of any race or combination of races. The tables in this report use the current (1997) Office of Management and Budget race and Hispanic origin terms, and the text uses shorter versions of these terms for conciseness. For example, the category ‘‘One race, Black or African American’’ in the tables is referred to as ‘‘black persons’’ in the text. 7 Refers to all persons who indicated more than one race group. Only two combinations of multiple race groups are shown due to small sample sizes for other combinations. Therefore, the frequencies for the category ‘‘Two or more races’’ will be greater than the sum of the frequencies for the specific combinations shown separately. 8 Persons of Hispanic or Latino origin may be of any race or combination of races. Similarly, the category ‘‘Not Hispanic or Latino’’ refers to all persons who are not of Hispanic or Latino origin, regardless of race. 9

Shown only for persons aged 25 years and over. GED is General Educational Development high school equivalency diploma. The categories ‘‘Less than $35,000’’ and ‘‘$35,000 or more’’ include both persons reporting dollar amounts and persons reporting only that their incomes were within one of these two categories (see Appendix I). The indented categories include only those persons who reported dollar amounts. Because of the different income questions used in 2007 and beyond, income estimates may not be comparable with those from earlier years. 10 11

* Estimates preceded by an asterisk have a relative standard error greater than 30% and less than or equal to 50% and should be used with caution as they do not meet standards of reliability or precision. † Estimates with a relative standard error greater than 50% are replaced with a dagger and are not shown. 1 Derived from several source questions: ‘‘In ANY ONE YEAR, have you had at least 12 drinks of any type of alcoholic beverage?’’; ‘‘In your ENTIRE LIFE, have you had at least 12 drinks of any type of alcoholic beverage?’’; and ‘‘In the PAST YEAR, how often did you drink any type of alcoholic beverage?’’ 2 Categories are based on the same definitions used in the ‘‘Health, United States’’ publications (see Appendix II) and are derived from respondents’ self-reported responses to a series of questions about alcohol consumption. A lifetime abstainer had fewer than 12 drinks in his or her lifetime; a former drinker had at least 12 drinks in his or her lifetime or in any one year AND had no drink in the past year; and a current drinker had at least 12 drinks in his or her lifetime or in any one year AND had a drink 1–365 times in the past year. 3

Former infrequent drinkers had at least 12 drinks in their lifetime but fewer than 12 drinks in any 1 year and no drinks in the last year. Former regular drinkers had at least 12 drinks in any 1 year and no drinks in the last year. Current infrequent drinkers had at least 12 drinks in their lifetime and fewer than 12 drinks in the past year, and current regular drinkers had at least 12 drinks in the past year. Former and current drinkers for whom the frequency of consumption or amount consumed was unknown are not included. 4








NOTES: Estimates are based on household interviews of a sample of the civilian noninstitutionalized population. Unless otherwise specified, estimates are age adjusted to the projected 2000 U.S. population as the standard population using four age groups: 18–44 years, 45–64 years, 65–74 years, and 75 years and over.

* Estimates preceded by an asterisk have a relative standard error greater than 30% and less than or equal to 50% and should be used with caution as they do not meet standards of reliability or precision. † Estimates with a relative standard error greater than 50% are replaced with a dagger and are not shown. – Quantity zero. 1 Starting with ‘‘Summary Health Statistics for U.S. Adults: National Health Interview Survey, 2010,’’ measures of physical activity shown are changed to reflect the federal ‘‘2008 Physical Activity Guidelines for Americans’’ (available from: http://www.health.gov/PAGuidelines/). This new table shows both frequencies for adults who met the guidelines’ aerobic component and frequencies for adults who met the full physical activity guidelines, including strengthening as well as aerobic activities. The 2008 federal guidelines recommend that for substantial health benefits, adults should perform at least 150 minutes (2 hours and 30 minutes) a week of moderate-intensity or 75 minutes (1 hour and 15 minutes) a week of vigorous-intensity aerobic physical activity, or an equivalent combination. Aerobic activity should be performed in episodes of at least 10 minutes that are preferably spread throughout the week. The guidelines also recommend that adults perform musclestrengthening activities of moderate or high intensity involving all major muscle groups on 2 or more days a week for additional health benefits. NHIS questions ask about frequency and duration of light- to moderate-intensity and vigorous-intensity leisure-time physical activities, and frequency of leisure-time strengthening activities. Questions are phrased in terms of current behavior and lack a specific reference period. 2 ‘‘Inactive’’ is participating in no leisure-time aerobic activity that lasted at least 10 minutes. ‘‘Insufficiently active’’ is participating in aerobic activities for 10 minutes or more but less than 150 minutes per week. ‘‘Sufficiently active,’’ which meets 2008 federal physical activity guidelines, is participating in moderate-intensity leisure-time physical activity 150 minutes or more per week, or in vigorousintensity leisure-time physical activity 75 minutes or more per week, or an equivalent combination. 3 Categories are mutually exclusive. Adults who met neither the aerobic nor muscle-strengthening 2008 federal physical activity guidelines may have engaged in lesser amounts of activity. Meeting only the strengthening guidelines means participating in leisure-time muscle-strengthening activities 2 or more days per week with either no leisure-time aerobic activity or aerobic activity that did not meet the guidelines. Meeting only the aerobic activity guidelines means participating in moderate-intensity leisure-time physical activities 150 minutes or more per week or vigorous-intensity activities 75 minutes or more per week, or an equivalent combination, and not meeting the strengthening guidelines. Meeting both aerobic and strengthening guidelines is defined in footnote 1. The sum of frequencies for adults who met the aerobic-only guidelines and for those who met both the aerobic and strengthening guidelines equals (within rounding error) the frequency of adults identified as ‘‘sufficiently active’’ according to the 2008 federal guidelines for aerobic activity. 4 Unknowns for the columns were not included in the frequency distributions (see Appendix I), but they are included in the ‘‘All persons aged 18 years and over’’ column. Numbers may not add to totals because of rounding.

* Estimates preceded by an asterisk have a relative standard error greater than 30% and less than or equal to 50% and should be used with caution as they do not meet standards of reliability or precision. † Estimates with a relative standard error greater than 50% are replaced with a dagger and are not shown. – Quantity zero. 1 Starting with ‘‘Summary Health Statistics for U.S. Adults: National Health Interview Survey, 2010,’’ measures of physical activity shown are changed to reflect the federal ‘‘2008 Physical Activity Guidelines for Americans’’ (available from: http:// www.health.gov/PAGuidelines/). This new table shows both percentages of adults who met the guidelines’ aerobic component and percentages of adults who met the full physical activity guidelines, including strengthening as well as aerobic activities. The 2008 federal guidelines recommend that for substantial health benefits, adults should perform at least 150 minutes (2 hours and 30 minutes) a week of moderate-intensity or 75 minutes (1 hour and 15 minutes) a week of vigorous-intensity aerobic physical activity, or an equivalent combination. Aerobic activity should be performed in episodes of at least 10 minutes that are preferably spread throughout the week. The guidelines also recommend that adults perform muscle-strengthening activities of moderate or high intensity involving all major muscle groups on 2 or more days a week for additional health benefits. NHIS questions ask about frequency and duration of light- to moderate-intensity and vigorous-intensity leisure-time physical activities, and frequency of leisure-time strengthening activities. Questions are phrased in terms of current behavior and lack a specific reference period. 2 ‘‘Inactive’’ is participating in no leisure-time aerobic activity that lasted at least 10 minutes. ‘‘Insufficiently active’’ is participating in aerobic activities for 10 minutes or more but less than 150 minutes per week. ‘‘Sufficiently active,’’ which meets 2008 federal physical activity guidelines, is participating in moderate-intensity leisure-time physical activity 150 minutes or more per week, or in vigorous-intensity leisure-time physical activity 75 minutes or more per week, or an equivalent combination. 3 Categories are mutually exclusive. Adults who met neither the aerobic nor muscle-strengthening 2008 federal physical activity guidelines may have engaged in lesser amounts of activity. Meeting only the strengthening guidelines means participating in leisure-time muscle-strengthening activities 2 or more days per week with either no leisure-time aerobic activity or aerobic activity that did not meet the guidelines. Meeting only the aerobic activity guidelines means participating in moderate-intensity leisure-time physical activities 150 minutes or more per week or vigorous-intensity activities 75 minutes or more per week, or an equivalent combination, and not meeting the strengthening guidelines. Meeting both aerobic and strengthening guidelines is defined in footnote 1. The sum of the percentages of adults who met the ‘‘aerobic only’’ guideline and the percentage who met both the ‘‘aerobic and strengthening’’ guidelines equals (within rounding error) the percentage of adults identified as ‘‘sufficiently active’’ according to the 2008 federal guidelines for aerobic activity. 4

Similarly, the category ‘‘Not Hispanic or Latino’’ refers to all persons who are not of Hispanic or Latino origin, regardless of race. Shown only for persons aged 25 years and over. Estimates are age adjusted to the projected 2000 U.S. standard population using four age groups: 25–44 years, 45–64 years, 65–74 years, and 75 years and over. GED is General Educational Development high school equivalency diploma. 12 The categories ‘‘Less than $35,000’’ and ‘‘$35,000 or more’’ include both persons reporting dollar amounts and persons reporting only that their incomes were within one of these two categories (see Appendix I). The indented categories include only those persons who reported dollar amounts. Because of the different income questions used in 2007 and beyond, income estimates may not be comparable with those from earlier years. 10 11

13 Based on family income and family size using the U.S. Census Bureau’s poverty thresholds for the previous calendar year. ‘‘Poor’’ persons are defined as below the poverty threshold. ‘‘Near poor’’ persons have incomes of 100% to less than 200% of the poverty threshold. ‘‘Not poor’’ persons have incomes that are 200% of the poverty threshold or greater. Because of the different income questions used in 2007 and beyond, poverty ratio estimates may not be comparable with those from earlier years. 14 Based on a hierarchy of mutually exclusive categories. Persons with more than one type of health insurance were assigned to the first appropriate category in the hierarchy. Persons under age 65 years and those aged 65 years and over were classified separately due to the predominance of Medicare coverage in the older population. The category ‘‘Private’’ includes persons who had any type of private coverage either alone or in combination with other coverage. For example, for persons aged 65 years and over, ‘‘Private’’ includes persons with only private coverage or private in combination with Medicare coverage. The category ‘‘Uninsured’’ includes persons who had no coverage as well as those who had only Indian Health Service coverage or had only a private plan that paid for one type of service such as accidents or dental care (see Appendix II). Estimates are age adjusted to the projected 2000 U.S. population as the standard population using two age groups for persons under age 65 (18–44 years and 45–64 years), and two age groups for persons aged 65 years and over (65–74 years and 75 years and over). 15


NOTES: Unless otherwise specified, estimates are age adjusted to the projected 2000 U.S. population as the standard population using four age groups: 18–44 years, 45–64 years, 65–74 years, and 75 years and over.

† Estimates with a relative standard error greater than 50% are replaced with a dagger and are not shown. * Estimates preceded by an asterisk have a relative standard error greater than 30% and less than or equal to 50% and should be used with caution as they do not meet standards of reliability or precision. 1 Calculated from information that respondents supplied in response to survey questions regarding height and weight. For both men and women, underweight is indicated by body mass index (BMI) under 18.5; healthy weight is indicated by BMI of 18.5 up to 25.0; overweight is indicated by BMI of 25.0 up to 30.0; and obesity is indicated by BMI of 30.0 or higher. Note that self-reported height and weight may differ from actual measurements. 2 Unknowns for the columns were not included in the frequency distributions (see Appendix I), but they are included in the ‘‘All persons aged 18 years and over’’ column. Numbers may not add to totals due to rounding. 3

Series 10, No. 252 [ Page 105 11 Based on a hierarchy of mutually exclusive categories. Persons with more than one type of health insurance were assigned to the first appropriate category in the hierarchy. Persons under age 65 years and those aged 65 years and over were classified separately due to the predominance of Medicare coverage in the older population. The category ‘‘Private’’ includes persons who had any type of private coverage either alone or in combination with other coverage. For example, for persons aged 65 years and over, ‘‘Private’’ includes persons with only private coverage or private in combination with Medicare coverage. The category ‘‘Uninsured’’ includes persons who had no coverage as well as those who had only Indian Health Service coverage or had only a private plan that paid for one type of service such as accidents or dental care (see Appendix II). 12 MSA is metropolitan statistical area. Large MSAs have a population size of 1 million or more; small MSAs have a population size of less than 1 million. ‘‘Not in MSA’’ consists of persons not living in a metropolitan statistical area.

† Estimates with a relative standard error greater than 50% are replaced with a dagger and are not shown. * Estimates preceded by an asterisk have a relative standard error greater than 30% and less than or equal to 50% and should be used with caution as they do not meet standards of reliability or precision. 1 Calculated from information that respondents supplied in response to survey questions regarding height and weight. For both men and women, underweight is indicated by body mass index (BMI) under 18.5; healthy weight is indicated by BMI of 18.5 up to 25.0; overweight is indicated by BMI of 25.0 up to 30.0; and obesity is indicated by BMI of 30.0 or higher. Note that self-reported height and weight may differ from actual measurements. 2

Page 108 [ Series 10, No. 252 12 Based on a hierarchy of mutually exclusive categories. Persons with more than one type of health insurance were assigned to the first appropriate category in the hierarchy. Persons under age 65 years and those aged 65 years and over were classified separately due to the predominance of Medicare coverage in the older population. The category ‘‘Private’’ includes persons who had any type of private coverage either alone or in combination with other coverage. For example, for persons aged 65 years and over, ‘‘Private’’ includes persons with only private coverage or private in combination with Medicare coverage. The category ‘‘Uninsured’’ includes persons who had no coverage as well as those who had only Indian Health Service coverage or had only a private plan that paid for one type of service such as accidents or dental care (see Appendix II). Estimates are age adjusted to the projected 2000 U.S. population as the standard population using two age groups for persons under age 65 (18–44 years and 45–64 years), and two age groups for persons aged 65 years and over (65–74 years and 75 years and over). 13 MSA is metropolitan statistical area. Large MSAs have a population size of 1 million or more; small MSAs have a population size of less than 1 million. ‘‘Not in MSA’’ consists of persons not living in a metropolitan statistical area.

NOTES: Estimates are based on household interviews of a sample of the civilian noninstitutionalized population. Unless otherwise specified, estimates are age adjusted to the projected 2000 U.S. population as the standard population using four age groups: 18–44 years, 45–64 years, 65–74 years, and 75 years and over. For crude percentages, refer to Table XVIII in Appendix III. SOURCE: CDC/NCHS, National Health Interview Survey, 2010.

† Estimates with a relative standard error greater than 50% are replaced with a dagger and are not shown. * Estimates preceded by an asterisk have a relative standard error greater than 30% and less than or equal to 50% and should be used with caution as they do not meet standards of reliability or precision. – Quantity zero. 1 Based on a survey question that asked, ‘‘Is there a place that you usually go to when you are sick or need advice about your health?’’ and if there was at least one such place, a follow-up question was asked: ‘‘What kind of place [is it/do you go to most often]—a clinic, a doctor’s office, an emergency room, or some other place?’’ The choices for this second question are: ‘‘clinic or health center,’’ ‘‘doctor’s office or HMO,’’ ‘‘hospital emergency room,’’ ‘‘hospital outpatient department,’’ ‘‘some other place,’’ or ‘‘doesn’t go to one place most often.’’ For this table, ‘‘hospital emergency room’’ and ‘‘hospital outpatient department’’ are combined, as are ‘‘some other place’’ and ‘‘doesn’t go to one place most often.’’ 2

HMO is health maintenance organization.

Unknowns for the columns were not included in the frequency distributions (see Appendix I) but they are included in the ‘‘All persons aged 18 years and over’’ and ‘‘All persons with a usual place of care’’ columns. Numbers may not add to totals because of rounding. 4

Shown only for persons aged 25 years and over. GED is General Educational Development high school equivalency diploma. The categories ‘‘Less than $35,000’’ and ‘‘$35,000 or more’’ include both persons reporting dollar amounts and persons reporting only that their incomes were within one of these two categories (see Appendix I). The indented categories include only those persons who reported dollar amounts. Because of the different income questions used in 2007 and beyond, income estimates may not be comparable with those from earlier years. 9

† Estimates with a relative standard error greater than 50% are replaced with a dagger and are not shown. * Estimates preceded by an asterisk have a relative standard error greater than 30% and less than or equal to 50% and should be used with caution as they do not meet standards of reliability or precision. – Quantity zero. 1 Based on a question in the survey that asked, ‘‘Is there a place that you usually go to when you are sick or need advice about your health?’’ and if there was at least one such place, a follow-up question was asked: ‘‘What kind of place [is it/do you go to most often]—a clinic, a doctor’s office, an emergency room, or some other place?’’ The choices for this second question are: ‘‘clinic or health center,’’ ‘‘doctor’s office or HMO,’’ ‘‘hospital emergency room,’’ ‘‘hospital outpatient department,’’ ‘‘some other place,’’ or ‘‘doesn’t go to one place most often.’’ For this table, ‘‘hospital emergency room’’ and ‘‘hospital outpatient department’’ are combined, as are ‘‘some other place’’ and ‘‘doesn’t go to one place most often.’’ 2

HMO is health maintenance organization.

9 Shown only for persons aged 25 years and over. Estimates are age adjusted to the projected 2000 U.S. standard population using four age groups: 25–44 years, 45–64 years, 65–74 years, and 75 years and over. 10 GED is General Educational Development high school equivalency diploma. 11 The categories ‘‘Less than $35,000’’ and ‘‘$35,000 or more’’ include both persons reporting dollar amounts and persons reporting only that their incomes were within one of these two categories (see Appendix I). The indented categories include only those persons who reported dollar amounts. Because of the different income questions used in 2007 and beyond, income estimates may not be comparable with those from earlier years.

NOTES: Estimates are based on household interviews of a sample of the civilian noninstitutionalized population. Unless otherwise specified, estimates are age adjusted to the projected 2000 U.S. population as the standard population using four age groups: 18–44 years, 45–64 years, 65–74 years, and 75 years and over.

* Estimates preceded by an asterisk have a relative standard error greater than 30% and less than or equal to 50% and should be used with caution as they do not meet standards of reliability or precision. † Estimates with a relative standard error greater than 50% are replaced with a dagger and are not shown. 1 Based on a survey question that asked respondents, ‘‘During the past 12 months, how many times have you seen a doctor or other health care professional about your own health at a doctor’s office, a clinic, or some other place?’’ Respondents were instructed to exclude overnight hospitalizations, visits to hospital emergency rooms, home visits, dental visits, and telephone calls. 2 Unknowns for the column variables are not shown in the frequency distributions (see Appendix I). They are, however, included in the ‘‘All persons aged 18 years and over’’ column. 3 Includes other races not shown separately and persons with unknown education, family income, poverty status, health insurance, and marital status characteristics. Additionally, numbers within selected characteristics may not add to totals because of rounding. 4 In accordance with the 1997 standards for federal data on race and Hispanic or Latino origin (see Appendix II), the category ‘‘One race’’ refers to persons who indicated only a single race group. Persons who indicated a single race other than the groups shown are included in the total for ‘‘One race’’ but are not shown separately due to small sample sizes. Therefore, the frequencies for the category ‘‘One race’’ will be greater than the sum of the frequencies for the specific groups shown separately. Persons of Hispanic or Latino origin may be of any race or combination of races. The tables in this report use the current (1997) Office of Management and Budget race and Hispanic origin terms, and the text uses shorter versions of these terms for conciseness. For example, the category ‘‘One race, Black or African American’’ in the tables is referred to as ‘‘black persons’’ in the text. 5 Refers to all persons who indicated more than one race group. Only two combinations of multiple race groups are shown due to small sample sizes for other combinations. Therefore, the frequencies for the category ‘‘Two or more races’’ will be greater than the sum of the frequencies for the specific combinations shown separately. 6

Shown only for persons aged 25 years and over. GED is General Educational Development high school equivalency diploma. The categories ‘‘Less than $35,000’’ and ‘‘$35,000 or more’’ include both persons reporting dollar amounts and persons reporting only that their incomes were within one of these two categories (see Appendix I). The indented categories include only those persons who reported dollar amounts. Because of the different income questions used in 2007 and beyond, income estimates may not be comparable with those from earlier years. 10 Based on family income and family size using the U.S. Census Bureau’s poverty thresholds for the previous calendar year. ‘‘Poor’’ persons are defined as below the poverty threshold. ‘‘Near poor’’ persons have incomes of 100% to less than 200% of the poverty threshold. ‘‘Not poor’’ persons have incomes that are 200% of the poverty threshold or greater. Because of the different income questions used in 2007 and beyond, poverty ratio estimates may not be comparable with those from earlier years. 8 9

* Estimates preceded by an asterisk have a relative standard error greater than 30% and less than or equal to 50% and should be used with caution as they do not meet standards of reliability or precision. † Estimates with a relative standard error greater than 50% are replaced with a dagger and are not shown. 1 Based on a survey question that asked respondents, ‘‘During the past 12 months, how many times have you seen a doctor or other health care professional about your own health at a doctor’s office, a clinic, or some other place?’’ Respondents were instructed to exclude overnight hospitalizations, visits to hospital emergency rooms, home visits, dental visits, and telephone calls. 2

Unknowns for the column variables are not included in the denominators when calculating percentages. Percentages may not add to totals due to rounding. Includes other races not shown separately and persons with unknown education, family income, poverty status, health insurance, and marital status characteristics. Additionally, percentages may not add to totals because of rounding. 4 Estimates for age groups are not age adjusted. 5 In accordance with the 1997 standards for federal data on race and Hispanic or Latino origin (see Appendix II), the category ‘‘One race’’ refers to persons who indicated only a single race group. Persons who indicated a single race other than the groups shown are included in the total for ‘‘One race’’ but are not shown separately due to small sample sizes. Therefore, the frequencies for the category ‘‘One race’’ will be greater than the sum of the frequencies for the specific groups shown separately. Persons of Hispanic or Latino origin may be of any race or combination of races. The tables in this report use the current (1997) Office of Management and Budget race and Hispanic origin terms, and the text uses shorter versions of these terms for conciseness. For example, the category ‘‘One race, Black or African American’’ in the tables is referred to as ‘‘black persons’’ in the text. 3



8 Shown only for persons aged 25 years and over. Estimates are age adjusted to the projected 2000 U.S. standard population using four age groups: 25–44 years, 45–64 years, 65–74 years, and 75 years and over. 9 GED is General Educational Development high school equivalency diploma. 10 The categories ‘‘Less than $35,000’’ and ‘‘$35,000 or more’’ include both persons reporting dollar amounts and persons reporting only that their incomes were within one of these two categories (see Appendix I). The indented categories include only those persons who reported dollar amounts. Because of the different income questions used in 2007 and beyond, income estimates may not be comparable with those from earlier years. 11 Based on family income and family size using the U.S. Census Bureau’s poverty thresholds for the previous calendar year. ‘‘Poor’’ persons are defined as below the poverty threshold. ‘‘Near poor’’ persons have incomes of 100% to less than 200% of the poverty threshold. ‘‘Not poor’’ persons have incomes that are 200% of the poverty threshold or greater. Because of the different income questions used in 2007 and beyond, poverty ratio estimates may not be comparable with those from earlier years.


NOTES: Estimates are based on household interviews of a sample of the civilian noninstitutionalized population. Unless otherwise specified, estimates are age adjusted to the projected 2000 U.S. population as the standard population using four age groups: 18–44 years, 45–64 years, 65–74 years, and 75 years and over. For crude percentages, refer to Table XX in Appendix III. SOURCE: CDC/NCHS, National Health Interview Survey, 2010.

Unknowns were not included in the denominators when calculating percentages (see Appendix I). Percentages may not add to totals due to rounding. Includes other races not shown separately and persons with unknown education, family income, poverty status, health insurance, and marital status characteristics. 4 Estimates for age groups are not age adjusted. 5 In accordance with the 1997 standards for federal data on race and Hispanic or Latino origin (see Appendix II), the category ‘‘One race’’ refers to persons who indicated only a single race group. Persons who indicated a single race other than the groups shown are included in the total for ‘‘One race’’ but are not shown separately due to small sample sizes. Therefore, the frequencies for the category ‘‘One race’’ will be greater than the sum of the frequencies for the specific groups shown separately. Persons of Hispanic or Latino origin may be of any race or combination of races. The tables in this report use the current (1997) Office of Management and Budget race and Hispanic origin terms, and the text uses shorter versions of these terms for conciseness. For example, the category ‘‘One race, Black or African American’’ in the tables is referred to as ‘‘black persons’’ in the text. 3

NOTES: Estimates are based on household interviews of a sample of the civilian noninstitutionalized population. Unless otherwise specified, estimates are age adjusted to the projected 2000 U.S. population as the standard population using four age groups: 18–44 years, 45–64 years, 65–74 years, and 75 years and over. For crude percentages, refer to Table XXI in Appendix III. SOURCE: CDC/NCHS, National Health Interview Survey, 2010.

* Estimates preceded by an asterisk have a relative standard error greater than 30% and less than or equal to 50% and should be used with caution as they do not meet standards of reliability or precision. † Estimates with a relative standard error greater than 50% are replaced with a dagger and are not shown. - Quantity zero. 1 Based on a survey question that asked respondents, ‘‘About how long has it been since you last saw a dentist?’’ Respondents were instructed to include all types of dentists, such as orthodontists, oral surgeons, and all other dental specialists, as well as dental hygienists. 2 Unknowns for the columns were not included in the frequency distributions (see Appendix I), but they are included in the ‘‘All persons aged 18 years and over’’ column.

* Estimates preceded by an asterisk have a relative standard error greater than 30% and less than or equal to 50% and should be used with caution as they do not meet standards of reliability or precision. 1 Based on a survey question that asked respondents, ‘‘Have you ever been tested for HIV?’’ Note that this question is different from the 1999 version, ‘‘Have you ever had your blood tested for the AIDS virus infection?’’ HIV is human immunodeficiency virus. Any HIV test as part of a blood donation is not included. 2

Unknowns for the columns are not included in the frequencies (see Appendix I), but they are included in the ‘‘All persons 18 years of age and over’’ column. The numbers in this table are rounded. Includes other races not shown separately and persons with unknown education, family income, poverty status, health insurance, and marital status characteristics.

NOTES: Estimates are based on household interviews of a sample of the civilian noninstitutionalized population. Unless otherwise specified, estimates are age adjusted to the projected 2000 U.S. population as the standard population using four age groups: 18–44 years, 45–64 years, 65–74 years, and 75 years and over. For crude percentages, refer to Table XXIII in Appendix III. SOURCE: CDC/NCHS, National Health Interview Survey, 2010.


Appendix I. Technical Notes on Methods (with Tables I–III) This report is one of a set of statistical reports published by the staff of the Centers for Disease Control and Prevention’s National Center for Health Statistics (NCHS). It is based on data contained in the 2010 in-house Sample Adult and Person files, which are derived from the Sample Adult and Family Core components of the National Health Interview Survey (NHIS). All estimates were weighted using the Sample Adult Record Weight and the in-house data file. The detailed sample design information was used to produce the most accurate variance estimates possible. Analysts should note that estimates and variances may differ depending on the weight used. All data used in the report are also available from the public-use data files with the exception of detailed information on race and Hispanic or Latino origin and on the sample design. Detailed sample design variables and detailed information on race and Hispanic or Latino origin cannot be made available on the public-use file due to potential disclosure of confidential information. Standard errors (SEs) produced using the SUDAAN statistical package (19) are shown for all percentages in the tables. SEs for frequencies are calculated but not shown in the tables. Percentages and frequencies with relative standard errors (RSEs) greater than 30% but less than or equal to 50% are considered unreliable and are indicated with an asterisk (*). Estimates with an RSE greater than 50% are replaced with a dagger (†) and are not shown. RSEs are calculated as: RSE = (SE/Est)100, where SE is the standard error of the estimate and Est is the estimate (percentage or frequency). The reliability of frequencies and their corresponding percentages is determined independently, so it is possible for a particular frequency to be reliable and its associated percentage unreliable, and vice versa.

Age Adjustment Unless otherwise specified, percentages shown in Tables 1–41 were age adjusted to the projected 2000 U.S. population as the standard population provided by the U.S. Census Bureau (17,18). Age adjustment was used to allow comparison among various population subgroups that have different age structures. This is particularly important for demographic characteristics such as race and ethnicity, education, and marital status. It is also helpful for other characteristics. Age-adjusted rates are calculated by the direct method as: n

Est =

�r p i=1

n

i i

,

� pi

i=1

where ri = rate in age group i in the population of interest, pi = standard population in age group i, n = total number of age groups used for age adjustment, and Est = age-adjusted rate. The standard age distribution used for age adjusting estimates from NHIS is the projected 2000 U.S. population as the standard population. Table I shows the age distributions used to perform age adjustment. For all tables, the age groups used to age adjust estimates were 18–44, 45–64, 65–74, and 75 years and over unless otherwise noted. Table I provides age distribution and age-adjustment weights used in age adjusting data. Health insurance and education are restricted to certain age groups and are therefore adjusted accordingly (for age groups used, see relevant table footnotes). Using different age groups for age adjustment may result in slightly different estimates. For this reason, age-adjusted estimates for health characteristics in this report may not match age-adjusted estimates for the same health characteristics in other

reports. Unadjusted estimates were also calculated and are provided in Appendix III, Tables IV–XXIII. For more information on the derivation of age-adjustment weights for use with NCHS survey data, see Klein and Schoenborn (18), which is available through NCHS at http://www.cdc.gov/ nchs/data/statnt/statnt20.pdf. The projected year 2000 U.S. resident population is available through the Census Bureau at http://www.census. gov/prod/1/pop/p25-1130/p251130.pdf.

Treatment of Unknown Values In the tables, all unknown values (responses coded as ‘‘refused,’’ ‘‘don’t know,’’ or ‘‘not ascertained’’) with respect to each table’s variables of interest were removed from the denominators when calculating row percentages. In most instances, the overall number of unknowns is quite small and would not support disaggregation by the demographic characteristics included in the table. Because these unknowns are not shown separately, users calculating their own percentages based on the frequencies and population counts presented in the tables may obtain slightly different results. To aid understanding of the data, weighted counts and percentages of unknowns (with respect to the variables of interest in each table) are shown in Table II. Unknowns with respect to the demographic characteristics used in each table are not shown due to small cell counts. However, unknowns for both family income and poverty status typically include a sizable number of persons regardless of the health outcome shown in the table. Missing data on family income and personal earnings in NHIS have been imputed by NCHS analysts using multiple-imputation methodology. Five ASCII data sets containing imputed values for the survey year and additional information about the imputed income files can be found

at http://www.cdc.gov/nchs/nhis.htm. However, income and poverty estimates in this publication are based on reported income only and may differ from other measures that are based on imputed data (which were not available when this report was prepared). Because it is difficult to interpret the relationship between ‘‘unknown’’ income (or poverty status) and the health outcomes displayed in the tables, counts of persons in these unknown categories are not shown in the tables. Table III shows weighted counts (in thousands) and weighted percentages of adults with unknown values for poverty status and family income, as well as for education, health insurance, and marital status. The ‘‘Income and Assets’’ section in the Family Core of the NHIS instrument allows respondents to report their family income in several ways. Respondents are first asked to provide their family’s total combined income before taxes from all sources for the previous calendar year in a dollar amount (from $0 up to $999,995). Any family income responses greater than $999,995 are entered as $999,996. From 1997 through 2006, respondents who did not know or

refused to state an amount were then asked if their family’s combined income in the previous calendar year was $20,000 or more, or less than $20,000. If they again refused to answer or said they did not know, they were not asked any more questions about their family income. Respondents who replied to the ‘‘above/below $20,000’’ question were then handed a list of detailed income categories (top-coded at $75,000 or more) and were asked to pick the interval containing their best estimate of their combined family income. However, starting with survey year 2007, the income follow-up questions were changed. Modifications in the 1997–2006 income follow-up questions were explored because the 1997–2006 income follow-up questions had not appreciably increased the analytic usability of family income data or of the poverty ratio in NHIS. During the second quarter of 2006, a portion of the NHIS sample participated in a field test that evaluated an alternative way to ask respondents about family income in an attempt to decrease the frequency of unknown responses to family income and poverty status variables. Based on

results of the 2006 field test, NHIS family income questions were modified starting with the first quarter of 2007. In the 2010 NHIS, respondents who did not know or refused to state an income amount were asked if their family’s combined income in the previous calendar year was $50,000 or more or less than $50,000. If they again refused to answer or said they did not know, they were not asked any more questions about their family’s income. If the respondent indicated that the family’s income was less than $50,000, at most two additional follow-up questions were asked: (a) if the family income was less than (or at least) $35,000, and (b) if it was less than $35,000, whether the family income was less than the poverty threshold. The family’s poverty threshold was prefilled by the computer-assisted personal interviewing (CAPI) instrument using information collected earlier in the interview. If the respondent initially indicated that the family income was $50,000 or more, at most two additional follow-up questions were asked: (a) if the family income was less than (or at least) $100,000, and (b) if it was less than $100,000, whether the family income was less than (or at least) $75,000. NHIS respondents thus fall into one of four categories with respect to income information: (a) those who supplied a dollar amount (82% of sample adults in 2010), (b) those who indicated a range for their income by answering all of the applicable follow-up questions (13% of sample adults), (c) those who indicated a less precise range for their family’s income by answering only some of the applicable follow-up questions (2% of sample adults), and (d) those who provided no income information (3% of sample adults) (unweighted results). Respondents who stated that their family income was below $35,000 are included in the ‘‘Less than $35,000’’ category under ‘‘Family income’’ in the tables in this report, along with respondents who gave an income range that was less than $35,000. Likewise, respondents who stated that their family income was at or above $35,000 are included in the ‘‘$35,000 or more’’

category under ‘‘Family income,’’ along with those respondents who gave an income range that was $35,000 or more. Users will note that the counts for the detailed (indented) amounts do not sum to the count shown for ‘‘$35,000 or more’’ for this reason. A poverty status variable was created for all respondents. Poverty status is the ratio of family income in the previous calendar year to the appropriate 2009 poverty threshold (given family size and number of children) defined by the U.S. Census Bureau (15). Different poverty thresholds were used in creating the poverty ratios for respondents who provided a dollar amount and respondents who specified only an income category in the follow-up questions. In a small number of cases (less than 0.5%), there may be inconsistencies in the categorical assignment of families in the detailed poverty ratio variables, reflecting the source of the income information. For further information, consult the 2010 NHIS Survey Description available from: ftp://ftp.cdc.gov/pub/ Health_Statistics/NCHS/ Dataset_Documentation/NHIS/2010/ srvydesc.pdf. Adults who are categorized as ‘‘Poor’’ had a ratio less than 1.0; that is, their family income was strictly below the poverty threshold. The ‘‘Near poor’’ category includes those adults with family incomes of 100% to less than 200% of the poverty threshold. ‘‘Not poor’’ adults have family incomes that are 200% of the poverty threshold or greater. The remaining groups of respondents—those who did not supply sufficient income information in the follow-up questions to categorize as a three-category poverty status variable, as well as those who did not provide any income information—are, by necessity, coded as ‘‘unknown’’ with respect to poverty status. Family income information is missing for 4% of the U.S. adult population, and poverty status information is missing for 8% of the U.S. adult population (weighted results). Similarly, 3% of the adult sample is missing information on income, and 9%

Hypothesis Tests Two-tailed tests of significance were performed for all of the comparisons mentioned in the ‘‘Selected Highlights’’ section of this report. No adjustments were made for multiple comparisons. The test statistic used to determine statistical significance of the difference between two percentages was: Z=

|Xa – Xb|

√Sa2 + Sb2

,

where Xa and Xb are the two percentages being compared, and Sa and Sb are the SUDAAN-calculated standard errors of those percentages. The critical value used for two-sided tests at the 0.05 level was 1.96.

Appendix II. Definitions of Selected Terms Sociodemographic Terms Age—The age recorded for each adult is the age at the last birthday. Age is recorded in single years and grouped using a variety of age categories depending on the purpose of the table. Education—Categories of education are based on years of school completed or highest degree obtained for persons aged 25 and over. Only years completed in a school that advances a person toward an elementary or high school diploma, General Educational Development (GED) high school equivalency diploma, or college, university, or professional degree are included. Education in other schools and home schooling are counted only if the credits are accepted in a regular school system. Employment—Persons aged 18 years and over were classified as currently employed if they reported that they either worked at or had a job or business at any time during the 1-week period preceding the interview. Current employment includes paid work as an employee in business, farming, or a professional practice, and unpaid work in a family business or farm. Persons temporarily absent from a job or business because of a temporary illness, vacation, strike, or bad weather were considered currently employed if they expected to work as soon as the particular event causing the absence no longer existed. Freelance workers were considered currently employed if they had a definite arrangement with one or more employers to work for pay according to a weekly or monthly schedule, either full time or part time. Excluded from the currently employed population are persons who have no definite employment schedule but work only when their services are needed. Also excluded from the currently employed population are (a) persons receiving revenue from an enterprise but not participating in its operation, (b) persons doing housework or charity work for which they received no pay, (c) seasonal workers during the portion of the year when they were not

working, and (d) persons who were not working, although they had a job or business but were laid off and looking for work. The number of currently employed persons estimated from NHIS will differ from the estimates prepared from the Current Population Survey (CPS) of the U.S. Census Bureau for several reasons. In addition to sampling variability, the two surveys have the following primary conceptual differences: 1. NHIS employment estimates are for persons aged 18 years and over; CPS estimates are for persons aged 16 years and over. 2. NHIS is a continuous survey with separate samples taken weekly; CPS is a monthly sample taken for the survey week that includes the 19th of the month. This report combines adults currently employed, as defined previously, with those who were not employed in the week preceding the interview but who were employed within the past 12 months, in order to estimate the number of employed and unemployed adults for the year. Family income—Each member of a family is classified according to the total income of all family members. Family members are all persons within the household related to each other by blood, marriage, cohabitation, or adoption. The income recorded is the total income received by all family members in the previous calendar year. Income from all sources includes wages, salaries, military pay (when an Armed Forces member lived in the family), pensions, government payments, child support or alimony, dividends, and help from relatives. Unrelated individuals living in the same household (e.g., roommates) are considered to be separate families and are classified according to their own incomes. Health insurance coverage—NHIS respondents were asked about their health insurance coverage at the time of interview. Respondents reported whether they were covered by private insurance (obtained from their employer or

workplace, purchased directly, or purchased through a local or community program), Medicare, Medigap (supplemental Medicare coverage), Medicaid, Children’s Health Insurance Program (CHIP), Indian Health Service (IHS), military coverage (including VA, TRICARE, or CHAMP–VA), a state-sponsored health plan, another government program, or single-service plans. This information was used to form two health insurance hierarchies: one for those under age 65 years and another for those aged 65 years and over. For persons under age 65 years, a health insurance hierarchy of four mutually exclusive categories was developed (20,21). Persons with more than one type of health insurance were assigned to the first appropriate category in the following hierarchy: Private coverage—Includes persons who had any comprehensive private insurance plan (including health maintenance organizations and preferred provider organizations). These plans include those obtained through an employer, purchased directly, or purchased through local or community programs. Medicaid—Includes persons who do not have private coverage but who have Medicaid or other statesponsored health plans, including CHIP. Other coverage—Includes persons who do not have private insurance or Medicaid or other public coverage but who have any type of military health plan (includes VA, TRICARE, and CHAMP–VA) or Medicare. This category also includes persons who are covered by other government programs. Uninsured—Includes persons who have not indicated that they are covered at the time of interview under private health insurance (from employer or workplace, purchased directly, or purchased through a state, local government, or


community program), Medicare, Medicaid, CHIP, a state-sponsored health plan, other government programs, or military health plan (includes VA, TRICARE, and CHAMP–VA). This category also includes persons who are covered by IHS only or who only have a plan that pays for one type of service such as accidents or dental care. For persons aged 65 years and over, a health insurance hierarchy of five mutually exclusive categories was developed (22). Persons with more than one type of health insurance were assigned to the first appropriate category in the following hierarchy: Private coverage—Includes older persons who have both Medicare and any comprehensive private health insurance plan (including health maintenance organizations and preferred provider organizations). These plans include those obtained through a current or former employer, purchased directly, or purchased through local or community programs. This category also includes persons with private insurance only. Medicare and Medicaid—Includes older persons who do not have any private coverage but who have Medicare and Medicaid or other state-sponsored health plans, including CHIP. Medicare only—Includes older persons who only have Medicare coverage. Other coverage—Includes older persons who have not been previously classified as having private, Medicare and Medicaid, or Medicare-only coverage. This category also includes older persons who have only Medicaid, other state-sponsored health plans, or CHIP, as well as persons who have any type of military health plan (VA, TRICARE, and CHAMP–VA) with or without Medicare. Uninsured—Includes persons who have not indicated that they are covered at the time of interview

under private health insurance (from employer or workplace, purchased directly, or obtained through a state, local government, or community program), Medicare, Medicaid, CHIP, a state-sponsored health plan, other government programs, or military health plan (includes VA, TRICARE, and CHAMP-VA). This category also includes persons who are covered by IHS only or who have only a plan that pays for one type of service such as accidents or dental care. For less than 1% of adults, coverage status (i.e., whether they are insured or uninsured) is unknown. Weighted frequencies indicate that approximately 0.43% of the adult population under age 65 years and less than 0.16% of the adult population aged 65 years and over fall into this ‘‘Unknown’’ category. Hispanic or Latino origin and race—These are two separate and distinct concepts. Persons of Hispanic or Latino origin may be of any race. Hispanic or Latino origin includes persons of Mexican, Puerto Rican, Cuban, Central and South American, or Spanish origin. All tables show Mexican or Mexican-American persons as a subset of Hispanic or Latino. Other groups are not shown for reasons of confidentiality or statistical reliability. In the 1997 and 1998 Summary Health Statistics reports, Hispanic ethnicity was shown as a part of race and ethnicity, which also included categories for ‘‘Non-Hispanic white,’’ ‘‘Non-Hispanic black,’’ and ‘‘NonHispanic other’’ (some tables showed Mexican-American persons as a subset of Hispanic persons). Beginning in 1999, the categories for race were expanded to be consistent with the 1997 Office of Management and Budget (OMB) federal guidelines (12), and a distinction is now made between the characteristics of race and of Hispanic or Latino origin and race. Hispanic or Latino origin and race is divided into ‘‘Hispanic or Latino’’ and ‘‘Not Hispanic or Latino.’’ ‘‘Hispanic or Latino’’ includes the subset ‘‘Mexican or Mexican American.’’ ‘‘Not Hispanic or Latino’’ is further divided into ‘‘White,

single race’’ and ‘‘Black or African American, single race.’’ Persons in these categories indicated only a single race group (see the definition of ‘‘Race’’ in this appendix for more information). Data are not shown for other ‘‘Not Hispanic or Latino, single race’’ persons or for multiple-race persons due to statistical unreliability as measured by the relative standard errors (RSEs) of the estimates (but are included in the total for ‘‘Not Hispanic or Latino’’). The text in this report uses shorter versions of the current (1997) OMB race and Hispanic or Latino origin terms for conciseness, while the tables use the complete terms. For example, the category ‘‘Not Hispanic or Latino, Black or African American, single race’’ in the tables is referred to as ‘‘non-Hispanic black’’ in the text. Marital status—Respondents were asked to choose a marital status category. Adults could select the category they felt most appropriate for their marital situation. Beginning in 1997, a new marital status category, ‘‘Living with a partner,’’ also termed ‘‘cohabiting,’’ was added, and persons who were living with a partner were considered members of the same family, whereas in the pre-1997 NHIS they were considered separate families. A legally annulled marriage is considered as not having taken place. Marital status is classified into the following five categories: Married—Includes all persons who identify themselves as married and who are not separated from their spouses. Married persons living apart because of circumstances of their employment are considered married. Persons may identify themselves as married regardless of the legal status of the marriage or sex of the spouse. Divorced or separated—Includes persons who are legally separated from their spouse or living apart for reasons of marital discord, and those who are divorced. Widowed—Includes persons who have lost their spouse due to death. Never married—Includes persons who were never married.


Living with partner—Includes unmarried persons regardless of sex who are living together as a couple but do not identify themselves as married. Place of residence—Classified in this report in three categories: large metropolitan statistical area (MSA) of 1 million or more persons, small MSA of less than 1 million persons, and not in an MSA. Generally, an MSA consists of a county or group of counties containing at least one urbanized area of 50,000 or more population. In addition to the county or counties that contain all or part of the urbanized area, an MSA may contain other adjacent counties that are economically and socially integrated with the central city. The number of adjacent counties included in an MSA is not limited, and boundaries may cross state lines. OMB defines MSAs according to published standards that are applied to U.S. Census Bureau data. The definition of an MSA is periodically reviewed. For 1995–2005 NHIS data, MSA definitions were based on the June 1993 MSA definitions that resulted from application of the 1990 OMB standards to the 1990 census. Beginning in 2006, the June 2003 metropolitan and micropolitan statistical area definitions, which resulted from application of the 2000 OMB standards to U.S. Census 2000, are used for NCHS data. The 2000 criteria for designating MSAs differ from the 1990 criteria in substantial ways, including simplification of the MSA classification criteria as well as addition of a new category— micropolitan statistical area—for some nonmetropolitan counties. These changes may lessen the comparability of estimates by place of residence in 2006–2010 with estimates from earlier years. Those who compare NHIS frequencies across this transition in OMB standards need to recognize that some of the differences may be due to the change in definitions of metropolitan areas. In the tables for this report, place of residence is based on variables in the 2010 in-house Household data file indicating MSA status and MSA size. These variables are collapsed into three categories based on the U.S. Census

2000 population: MSAs with a population of 1 million or more, MSAs with a population of less than 1 million, and areas that are not within an MSA. Areas not in an MSA include both micropolitan areas and areas outside the core-based statistical areas. For additional information about MSAs, see the Census Bureau’s website at: http:// www.census.gov/population/metro/. Poverty status—Based on family income and family size using the U.S. Census Bureau’s poverty thresholds. ‘‘Poor’’ persons are defined as those whose family incomes are below the poverty threshold. ‘‘Near poor’’ persons have family incomes of 100% to less than 200% of the poverty threshold. ‘‘Not poor’’ persons have family incomes that are 200% of the poverty threshold or greater. More information on the measurement of family income and poverty status is available in Appendix I. Race—In the 1997 and 1998 Summary Health Statistics reports, race and ethnicity consisted of four categories: ‘‘Non-Hispanic white,’’ ‘‘Non-Hispanic black,’’ ‘‘Non-Hispanic other,’’ and ‘‘Hispanic’’ (some tables showed Mexican-American persons as a subset of Hispanic persons). Beginning in 1999, the categories for race were expanded to be consistent with the 1997 OMB federal guidelines (12), which now distinguish persons of one race from persons of two or more races. The category ‘‘One race’’ refers to persons who indicated only a single race group, and it includes subcategories for ‘‘White,’’ ‘‘Black or African American,’’ ‘‘American Indian or Alaska Native’’ (AIAN), ‘‘Asian,’’ and ‘‘Native Hawaiian or Other Pacific Islander.’’ The category ‘‘Two or more races’’ refers to persons who indicated more than one race group. Estimates for multiple-race combinations can only be reported to the extent that they meet the requirements for confidentiality and statistical reliability. In this report, three categories are shown for multiple-race individuals, a summary category and two multiple-race categories—‘‘Black or African American and white’’ and ‘‘AIAN and white.’’ Other combinations are not shown due to statistical unreliability as measured by the RSEs

of the estimates (but they are included in the total for ‘‘Two or more races’’). Prior to 2003, ‘‘other race’’ was a separate race response in NHIS, although it was not shown separately in the tables of the Summary Health Statistics reports. In the 2003 NHIS, however, editing procedures were changed to maintain consistency with U.S. Census Bureau procedures for collecting and editing data on race and ethnicity. As a result of these changes, in cases where ‘‘other race’’ was mentioned along with one or more OMB race groups, the ‘‘other race’’ response is dropped and the OMB race group information is retained on the NHIS data file. In cases where ‘‘other race’’ was the only race response, it is treated as missing and the race is imputed. Although this change has resulted in an increase in the number of persons in the OMB race category ‘‘White’’ because this is numerically the largest group, the change is not expected to have a substantial effect on the estimates in this report. More information about the race and ethnicity editing procedures used by the Census Bureau can be found at: http://www. census.gov/popest/data/historical/files/ MRSF-01-US1.pdf. The text in this report uses shorter versions of the current (1997) OMB race terms for conciseness, and the tables use the complete terms. For example, the category ‘‘Black or African American, single race’’ in the tables is referred to as ‘‘black’’ in the text.

Questions about joint symptoms were altered to exclude the respondent’s back and neck. The reference period was changed from ‘‘past 12 months’’ to ‘‘past 30 days,’’ and chronic joint symptoms were defined as having started ‘‘more than 3 months ago.’’ The arthritis diagnosis question (‘‘Have you ever been told by a doctor or other health professional that you have arthritis . . .’’) was modified to include ‘‘some form of arthritis, rheumatoid arthritis, gout, lupus, or fibromyalgia.’’ These questions have remained unchanged since 2002, and estimates for adults with self-reported arthritis diagnosis and self-reported chronic joint symptoms are shown separately in Tables 7, 8, and VII. Asthma—Covers both adults who have ever been told they have asthma by a doctor or other health professional, and adults who still have asthma (currently). Bed day—A day during which a person stayed in bed more than half a day because of illness or injury. All hospital days for inpatients are considered bed days even if the patient was not in bed more than half a day. Conditions—A general term that includes any specific illness (physical or mental) or injury. From 1978 through

1996, six chronic condition lists were used in NHIS. Those six lists covered 133 conditions. The 1997 (and beyond) NHIS chronic condition data cover a substantially reduced number of conditions. All data in the 2010 Sample Adult component are self-reported, and most questions ask whether a condition was diagnosed by a doctor or a health professional. Reference periods for the conditions vary. Four basic reference periods are used: ever, past 12 months, past 30 days, and currently. Difficulty in physical functioning— Refers to the degree of difficulty respondents experienced in performing nine physical activities without the assistance of another person and without using special equipment. Questions for the sample adult regarding difficulty in physical functioning cover the following activities: walking a quarter of a mile (or three city blocks); climbing 10 steps without resting; standing for 2 hours; sitting for 2 hours; stooping, bending, or kneeling; reaching over one’s head; using one’s fingers to grasp or handle small objects; lifting or carrying a 10-pound object (such as a bag of groceries); and pushing or pulling large objects (such as a living room chair). Response categories include ‘‘not at all difficult,’’ ‘‘only a little difficult,’’ ‘‘somewhat difficult,’’ ‘‘very difficult,’’ ‘‘can’t do at all,’’ or ‘‘do not do this activity.’’ Adults who indicated that the specific activity was ‘‘very difficult’’ or that they ‘‘can’t do (it) at all’’ were combined in a single category as having difficulty in physical functioning. Those who responded ‘‘do not do this activity’’ were not included in the tables. Doctor or other health professional—‘‘Doctor’’ refers to medical doctors (MDs) and osteopathic physicians (DOs), including general practitioners and all types of specialists (such as surgeons, internists, gynecologists, obstetricians, proctologists, psychiatrists, dermatologists, and ophthalmologists). ‘‘Other health care professional’’ includes physician assistants, psychologists, nurses, physical therapists, chiropractors, and others. Health status—Obtained from a survey question that asked respondents, ‘‘Would you say your health in general

was excellent, very good, good, fair, or poor?’’ Information was obtained about all respondents, with proxy responses allowed for adults not taking part in the interview. Prior health status is obtained from the question asked of all sample adults, ‘‘Compared with twelve months ago, would you say that your health is better, worse, or about the same?’’ Work-loss day—A day in which a currently employed person aged 18 years or over missed more than half a day from a job or business due to illness or injury.

Terms Related to Sample Adult Behavior Alcohol drinking status—Refers to the respondent’s alcohol drinking status at the time of interview. Five alcohol consumption categories are used—two refer to current drinking, two to former drinking, and the fifth to lifetime abstinence: Current regular drinker—Had 12 drinks or more in his or her lifetime and at least 12 drinks in the past year. Current infrequent drinker—Had 12 drinks or more in his or her lifetime but fewer than 12 drinks in the past year. Former regular drinker—Had 12 drinks or more in his or her lifetime, and at least 12 drinks in any 1 year, but no drinks in the past year. Former infrequent drinker—Had 12 drinks or more in his or her lifetime, but never as many as 12 in a single year, and no drinks in the past year. Lifetime abstainer—Had fewer than 12 drinks in his or her entire lifetime. In 2002, a change was made in the calculation of the former infrequent and current infrequent drinker categories. Prior to 2002, these categories included a small number of respondents who indicated either the frequency of their drinking but not the amount, or the amount but not the frequency, at the


same time satisfying the broad definition of either former or current drinker. Persons with incomplete responses now are categorized as ‘‘Former or Current drinker status unknown’’ and are not shown in the tables. Body mass index (BMI)—Calculated from the sample adult’s responses to survey questions regarding height and weight and defined as BMI = Weight (in kg)/[Height (in m)]2. For both sexes, the category ‘‘Underweight’’ is defined as BMI less than 18.5. ‘‘Healthy weight’’ is defined as BMI greater than or equal to 18.5 and less than 25.0. ‘‘Overweight’’ is defined as BMI greater than or equal to 25.0 and less than 30.0. ‘‘Obese’’ is defined as BMI greater than or equal to 30.0. Cigarette smoking status— Information on cigarette smoking status at the time of interview is derived from two survey questions. All respondents are first asked, ‘‘Have you smoked at least 100 cigarettes in your entire life?’’ Respondents who answered ‘‘yes’’ to the previous question are then asked, ‘‘Do you now smoke cigarettes every day, some days, or not at all?’’ The information obtained from these two questions is combined to create the variable represented in Tables 24, 25, and XV. Current smoker—Two categories of current smokers are used: One includes persons who smoke every day, and the second includes those who smoke only on some days. Former smoker—Includes persons who have smoked at least 100 cigarettes in their lifetime but currently do not smoke at all. Nonsmoker—Includes persons who have never smoked at least 100 cigarettes in their lifetime. Human immunodeficiency virus (HIV) testing status—Based on a survey question that asked whether the respondent has ever had his or her blood tested for HIV. Starting in 2000, this question is slightly different than the one used in 1997–1999 that asked about acquired immunodeficiency syndrome (AIDS) virus testing status (not HIV). Any HIV test as part of a blood donation is excluded.

Leisure-time physical activity—All survey questions related to leisure-time physical activity were phrased in terms of current behavior and lack a specific prior reference period. Starting with 1997 data, leisure-time physical activity is assessed in NHIS by asking adults a series of questions about how often they do vigorous or light to moderate physical activity of at least 10 minutes’ duration and how long these sessions generally last. Starting with ‘‘Summary Health Statistics for U.S. Adults: National Health Interview Survey, 2010,’’ measures of physical activity shown in this report are changed to reflect the federal ‘‘2008 Physical Activity Guidelines for Americans’’ (available from: http://www.health.gov/ PAGuidelines/). The 2008 federal guidelines recommend that for substantial health benefits, adults should perform at least 150 minutes (2 hours and 30 minutes) a week of moderateintensity or 75 minutes (1 hour and 15 minutes) a week of vigorous-intensity aerobic physical activity, or an equivalent combination. Aerobic activity should be performed in episodes of at least 10 minutes and, preferably, should be spread throughout the week. The 2008 federal guidelines also recommend that adults perform muscle-strengthening activities of moderate or high intensity that involve all major muscle groups on 2 or more days per week for additional health benefits. Regarding aerobic leisure-time physical activity, ‘‘Inactive’’ is defined as participating in no leisure-time aerobic activity that lasted at least 10 minutes. ‘‘Insufficiently active’’ is defined as participating in aerobic activities for 10 minutes or more up to 150 minutes per week. ‘‘Sufficiently active’’ (which meets the 2008 federal guidelines) is defined as participating in moderate-intensity leisure-time physical activity 150 minutes or more per week or vigorous-intensity leisure-time physical activity 75 minutes or more per week, or an equivalent combination. Adults who met neither the aerobic nor muscle-strengthening 2008 federal guidelines may have engaged in lesser amounts of activity. Meeting the strengthening guidelines (only) is defined as participating in leisure-time

muscle-strengthening activities 2 days or more per week and either no leisuretime aerobic activity or aerobic activity that did not meet the guidelines. Meeting the aerobic activity guidelines (only) is defined as participating in moderate-intensity leisure-time physical activities 150 minutes or more per week or vigorous-intensity activities 75 minutes or more per week, or an equivalent combination, and not meeting the strengthening guidelines. Estimates presented in this report are limited to leisure-time physical activity only. The 2008 federal physical activity guidelines refer to any kind of aerobic and muscle-strengthening activities, not just to leisure-time aerobic and musclestrengthening activities; therefore, the leisure-time aerobic and musclestrengthening activity estimates in this report may underestimate the frequencies and percentages of adults who met the guidelines for aerobic and muscle-strengthening activities. Number of visits to a doctor or other health professional in the past 12 months—The number of visits to a doctor’s office, clinic, or other place that the respondent has made in the past 12 months regarding his or her personal health. Overnight hospital stays, hospital emergency room visits, home visits, and telephone calls are excluded. Time since last dental contact—The length of time since the respondent last saw a dentist, including dental specialists as well as dental hygienists, prior to the week of interview. Time since last physician or other health care professional contact—The length of time, prior to the week of interview, since the respondent last consulted a physician or other health care professional in person or by telephone for health treatment or advice of any type. This may include a contact while a patient is in the hospital as well as a contact from a home visit. The respondent is asked: ‘‘About how long has it been since you saw or talked to a doctor or other health professional about your own health?’’ Response categories are: ‘‘6 months or less,’’ ‘‘more than 6 months, but not more than 1 year ago,’’ ‘‘more than 1 year, but not more than 2 years ago,’’ ‘‘more than 2 years, but not more than 5 years ago,’’ ‘‘more than 5 years ago,’’ and ‘‘never.’’


Usual place of health care—Based on a survey question that asked whether respondents had a place they usually went to when they were sick or needed advice about their health. If the response was ‘‘yes,’’ they were asked, ‘‘What kind of place [is it/do you go to most often]—a clinic, a doctor’s office, an emergency room, or some other place?’’ Response choices for this second question are: ‘‘clinic or health center,’’ ‘‘doctor’s office or HMO,’’ ‘‘hospital emergency room,’’ ‘‘hospital outpatient department,’’ ‘‘some other place,’’ or ‘‘doesn’t go to one place most often.’’ Although ‘‘hospital emergency room’’ is not considered a ‘‘usual place of health care’’ in other publications, in this report it is combined with ‘‘hospital outpatient clinic.’’ Also combined in this report are ‘‘some other place’’ and ‘‘doesn’t go to one place most often.’’

Includes coronary heart disease, angina pectoris, heart attack, or any other heart condition or disease. Includes coronary heart disease, angina pectoris, or heart attack. 4 Persons had to have been told on two or more different visits that they had hypertension or high blood pressure to be classified as hypertensive. 5 Unknowns for the columns were not included in the denominators when calculating percentages (see Appendix I). The percentages in this table are rounded. 6 Includes other races not shown separately and persons with unknown education, family income, poverty status, health insurance, and marital status characteristics. 7 In accordance with the 1997 standards for federal data on race and Hispanic or Latino origin (see Appendix I), the category ‘‘One race’’ refers to persons who indicated only a single race group. Persons who indicated a single race other than the groups shown are included in the total for ‘‘One race’’ but are not shown separately due to small sample sizes. Therefore, the frequencies for the category ‘‘One race’’ will be greater than the sum of the frequencies for the specific groups shown separately. Persons of Hispanic or Latino origin may be of any race or combination of races. The tables in this report use the current (1997) Office of Management and Budget race and Hispanic origin terms, and the text uses shorter versions of these terms for conciseness. For example, the category ‘‘One race, Black or African American’’ in the tables is referred to as ‘‘black persons’’ in the text. 3

Based on family income and family size using the U.S. Census Bureau’s poverty thresholds for the previous calendar year. ‘‘Poor’’ persons are defined as below the poverty threshold. ‘‘Near poor’’ persons have incomes of 100% to less than 200% of the poverty threshold. ‘‘Not poor’’ persons have incomes that are 200% of the poverty threshold or greater. Because of the different income questions used in 2007 and beyond, poverty ratio estimates may not be comparable with those from earlier years. 14 Based on a hierarchy of mutually exclusive categories. Persons with more than one type of health insurance were assigned to the first appropriate category in the hierarchy. Persons under age 65 years and those aged 65 years and over were classified separately due to the predominance of Medicare coverage in the older population. The category ‘‘Private’’ includes persons who had any type of private coverage either alone or in combination with other coverage. For example, for persons aged 65 years and over, ‘‘Private’’ includes persons with only private coverage or private in combination with Medicare coverage. The category ‘‘Uninsured’’ includes persons who had no coverage as well as those who had only Indian Health Service coverage or had only a private plan that paid for one type of service such as accidents or dental care (see Appendix I). 15 MSA is metropolitan statistical area. Large MSAs have a population size of 1 million or more; small MSAs have a population size of less than 1 million. ‘‘Not in MSA’’ consists of persons not living in a metropolitan statistical area.

NOTES: Estimates are based on household interviews of a sample of the civilian noninstitutionalized population. For age-adjusted percentages, refer to Table 2. SOURCE: CDC/NCHS, National Health Interview Survey, 2010.

Page 154 [ Series 10, No. 252 11 Based on a hierarchy of mutually exclusive categories. Persons with more than one type of health insurance were assigned to the first appropriate category in the hierarchy. Persons under age 65 years and those aged 65 years and over were classified separately due to the predominance of Medicare coverage in the older population. The category ‘‘Private’’ includes persons who had any type of private coverage either alone or in combination with other coverage. For example, for persons aged 65 years and over, ‘‘private’’ includes persons with only private coverage or private in combination with Medicare coverage. The category ‘‘Uninsured’’ includes persons who had no coverage as well as those who had only Indian Health Service coverage or had only a private plan that paid for one type of service such as accidents or dental care (see Appendix II). 12 MSA is metropolitan statistical area. Large MSAs have a population size of 1 million or more; small MSAs have a population size of less than 1 million. ‘‘Not in MSA’’ consists of persons not living in a metropolitan statistical area.

Respondents were asked if they had ever been told by a doctor or other health professional that they had a cancer or a malignancy of any kind. They were then asked to name the kind of cancer they had. A person may be represented in more than one column. 2

Unknowns for the columns were not included in the denominators when calculating percentages (see Appendix I). Further, the denominators for calculating cervical cancer and prostate cancer percentages are sex-specific, and the denominators for calculating breast cancer percentages encompass all adults. The percentages in this table are rounded.

Unknowns for the columns were not included in the denominators when calculating percentages (see Appendix I). Percentages in this table are rounded. Includes other races not shown separately and persons with unknown education, family income, poverty status, health insurance, and marital status characteristics. 6 In accordance with the 1997 standards for federal data on race and Hispanic or Latino origin (see Appendix II), the category ‘‘One race’’ refers to persons who indicated only a single race group. Persons who indicated a single race other than the groups shown are included in the total for ‘‘One race’’ but are not shown separately due to small sample sizes. Therefore, the frequencies for the category ‘‘One race’’ will be greater than the sum of the frequencies for the specific groups shown separately. Persons of Hispanic or Latino origin may be of any race or combination of races. The tables in this report use the current (1997) Office of Management and Budget race and Hispanic origin terms, and the text uses shorter versions of these terms for conciseness. For example, the category ‘‘One race, Black or African American’’ in the tables is referred to as ‘‘black persons’’ in the text. 5

Unknowns for the columns were not included in the denominators when calculating percentages (see Appendix I). The percentages in this table are rounded. Includes other races not shown separately and persons with unknown education, family income, poverty status, health insurance, and marital status characteristics. 7 In accordance with the 1997 standards for federal data on race and Hispanic or Latino origin (see Appendix II), the category ‘‘One race’’ refers to persons who indicated only a single race group. Persons who indicated a single race other than the groups shown are included in the total for ‘‘One race’’ but are not shown separately due to small sample sizes. Therefore, the frequencies for the category ‘‘One race’’ will be greater than the sum of the frequencies for the specific groups shown separately. Persons of Hispanic or Latino origin may be of any race or combination of races. The tables in this report use the current (1997) Office of Management and Budget race and Hispanic origin terms, and the text uses shorter versions of these terms for conciseness. For example, the category ‘‘one race, Black or African American’’ in the tables is referred to as ‘‘black persons’’ in the text. 6

Based on family income and family size using the Census Bureau’s poverty thresholds for the previous calendar year. ‘‘Poor’’ persons are defined as below the poverty threshold. ‘‘Near poor’’ persons have incomes of 100% to less than 200% of the poverty threshold. ‘‘Not poor’’ persons have incomes that are 200% of the poverty threshold or greater. Because of the different income questions used in 2007 and beyond, poverty ratio estimates may not be comparable with those from earlier years. 14 Based on a hierarchy of mutually exclusive categories. Persons with more than one type of health insurance were assigned to the first appropriate category in the hierarchy. Persons under age 65 years and those aged 65 years and over were classified separately due to the predominance of Medicare coverage in the older population. The category ‘‘Private’’ includes persons who had any type of private coverage either alone or in combination with other coverage. For example, for persons aged 65 years and over, ‘‘Private’’ includes persons with only private coverage or private in combination with Medicare coverage. The category ‘‘Uninsured’’ includes persons who had no coverage as well as those who had only Indian Health Service coverage or had only a private plan that paid for one type of service such as accidents or dental care (see Appendix II). 15 MSA is metropolitan statistical area. Large MSAs have a population size of 1 million or more; small MSAs have a population size of less than 1 million. ‘‘Not in MSA’’ consists of persons not living in a metropolitan statistical area.

Is your hearing excellent, good, [do you have] a little trouble hearing, moderate trouble, a lot of trouble, or are you deaf?’’ For this table, ‘‘a little trouble hearing,’’ ‘‘moderate trouble,’’ ‘‘a lot of trouble,’’ and ‘‘deaf’’ are combined into one category. Data analysts should note that this question contains more response levels than the 2006 version, which had the following categories: ‘‘good,’’ ‘‘a little trouble,’’ ‘‘a lot of trouble,’’ and ‘‘deaf.’’ In 2006, hearing trouble was defined by the following categories: ‘‘a little trouble,’’ ‘‘a lot of trouble,’’ and ‘‘deaf.’’ Estimates of hearing trouble for 2007 may not be comparable with earlier years. A person may be represented in more than one column. 2 Regarding their vision, respondents were asked, ‘‘Do you have any trouble seeing, even when wearing glasses or contact lenses?’’ Respondents were also asked, ‘‘Are you blind or unable to see at all?’’ For this table, ‘‘any trouble seeing’’ and ‘‘blind’’ are combined into one category. A person may be represented in more than one column. 3

Respondents were asked, ‘‘Have you lost all of your upper and lower natural (permanent) teeth?’’ A person may be represented in more than one column.

4

Unknowns for the columns were not included in the denominators when calculating percentages (see Appendix I). The percentages in this table are rounded. Includes other races not shown separately and persons with unknown education, family income, poverty status, health insurance, and marital status characteristics. 6 In accordance with the 1997 standards for federal data on race and Hispanic or Latino origin (see Appendix II), the category ‘‘One race’’ refers to persons who indicated only a single race group. Persons who indicated a single race other than the groups shown are included in the total for ‘‘One race’’ but are not shown separately due to small sample sizes. Therefore, the frequencies for the category ‘‘One race’’ will be greater than the sum of the frequencies for the specific groups shown separately. Persons of Hispanic or Latino origin may be of any race or combination of races. The tables in this report use the current (1997) Office of Management and Budget race and Hispanic origin terms, and the text uses shorter versions of these terms for conciseness. For example, the category ‘‘One race, Black or African American’’ in the tables is referred to as ‘‘black persons’’ in the text. 5

– Quantity zero. † Estimates with a relative standard error greater than 50% are replaced with a dagger and are not shown. * Estimates preceded by an asterisk have a relative standard error greater than 30% and less than or equal to 50% and should be used with caution as they do not meet standards of reliability or precision. 1 In two separate questions, respondents were asked how often they felt nervous or restless in the past 30 days. Respondents could choose among five response categories: ‘‘All of the time,’’ ‘‘Most of the time,’’ ‘‘Some of the time,’’ ‘‘A little of the time,’’ or ‘‘None of the time.’’ For this table, ‘‘All’’ and ‘‘Most’’ are combined, and ‘‘Some’’ is shown separately. 2

Unknowns for the columns were not included in the denominators when calculating percentages (see Appendix I). The percentages in this table are rounded. Includes other races not shown separately and persons with unknown education, family income, poverty status, health insurance, and marital status characteristics. 4 In accordance with the 1997 standards for federal data on race and Hispanic or Latino origin (see Appendix II), the category ‘‘One race’’ refers to persons who indicated only a single race group. Persons who indicated a single race other than the groups shown are included in the total for ‘‘One race’’ but are not shown separately due to small sample sizes. Therefore, the frequencies for the category ‘‘One race’’ will be greater than the sum of the frequencies for the specific groups shown separately. Persons of Hispanic or Latino origin may be of any race or combination of races. The tables in this report use the current (1997) Office of Management and Budget race and Hispanic origin terms, and the text uses shorter versions of these terms for conciseness. For example, the category ‘‘One race, Black or African American’’ in the tables is referred to as ‘‘black persons’’ in the text. 3

* Estimates preceded by an asterisk have a relative standard error greater than 30% and less than or equal to 50% and should be used with caution as they do not meet standards of reliability or precision. † Estimates with a relative standard error greater than 50% are replaced with a dagger and are not shown. – Quantity zero. 1 In a series of separate questions, respondents were asked the degree of difficulty they experienced performing nine physical activities by themselves and without using any special equipment. The activities included walking a quarter of a mile (or three city blocks); standing for 2 hours; stooping, bending, or kneeling; climbing 10 steps without resting; sitting for 2 hours; reaching over one’s head; using one’s fingers to grasp or handle small objects; lifting or carrying a 10-pound object (such as a full bag of groceries); and pushing or pulling a large object (such as a living room chair). The response categories consisted of ‘‘not at all difficult,’’ ‘‘only a little difficult,’’ ‘‘somewhat difficult,’’ ‘‘very difficult,’’ ‘‘can’t do at all,’’ or ‘‘do not do this activity.’’ For this table, response categories ‘‘very difficult’’ and ‘‘can’t do at all’’ are combined and shown in the columns. 2

Consists of a ‘‘very difficult’’ or ‘‘can’t do at all’’ response to at least one of the nine physical activities shown in columns 3–11. Percentages of persons reporting no difficulty in physical functioning, ‘‘only a little’’ or ‘‘some’’ difficulty, or that they ‘‘do not do this activity,’’ and those for whom the information is unknown (see Appendix I), are not shown separately. Persons who respond ‘‘do not do this activity’’ are not included in the denominator when calculating percentages. Percentages in this table are rounded. 4 Includes other races not shown separately and persons with unknown education, family income, poverty status, health insurance, and marital status characteristics. 5 In accordance with the 1997 standards for federal data on race and Hispanic or Latino origin (see Appendix II), the category ‘‘One race’’ refers to persons who indicated only a single race group. Persons who indicated a single race other than the groups shown are included in the total for ‘‘One race’’ but are not shown separately due to small sample sizes. Therefore, the frequencies for the category ‘‘One race’’ will be greater than the sum of the frequencies for the specific groups shown separately. Persons of Hispanic or Latino origin may be of any race or combination of races. The tables in this report use the current (1997) Office of Management and Budget race and Hispanic origin terms, and the text uses shorter versions of these terms for conciseness. For example, the category ‘‘One race, Black or African American’’ in the tables is referred to as ‘‘black persons’’ in the text. 3


Persons of Hispanic or Latino origin may be of any race or combination of races. Similarly, the category ‘‘Not Hispanic or Latino’’ refers to all persons who are not of Hispanic or Latino origin, regardless of race. Shown only for persons aged 25 years and over. GED is General Educational Development high school equivalency diploma. 10 The categories ‘‘Less than $35,000’’ and ‘‘$35,000 or more’’ include both persons reporting dollar amounts and persons reporting only that their incomes were within one of these two categories (see Appendix I). The indented categories include only those persons who reported dollar amounts. Because of the different income questions used in 2007 and beyond, income estimates may not be comparable with those from earlier years. 11 Based on family income and family size using the U.S. Census Bureau’s poverty thresholds for the previous calendar year. ‘‘Poor’’ persons are defined as below the poverty threshold. ‘‘Near poor’’ persons have incomes of 100% to less than 200% of the poverty threshold. ‘‘Not poor’’ persons have incomes that are 200% of the poverty threshold or greater. Because of the different income questions used in 2007 and beyond, poverty ratio estimates may not be comparable with those from earlier years. 12 Based on a hierarchy of mutually exclusive categories. Persons with more than one type of health insurance were assigned to the first appropriate category in the hierarchy. Persons under age 65 years and those aged 65 years and over were classified separately due to the predominance of Medicare coverage in the older population. The category ‘‘Private’’ includes persons who had any type of private coverage either alone or in combination with other coverage. For example, for persons aged 65 years and over, ‘‘Private’’ includes persons with only private coverage or private in combination with Medicare coverage. The category ‘‘Uninsured’’ includes persons who had no coverage as well as those who had only Indian Health Service coverage or had only a private plan that paid for one type of service such as accidents or dental care (see Appendix II). 8 9

* Estimates preceded by an asterisk have a relative standard error greater than 30% and less than or equal to 50% and should be used with caution as they do not meet standards of reliability or precision. 1 Based on a survey question that asked respondents, ‘‘Would you say [subject name’s] health in general was excellent, very good, good, fair, or poor?’’ This information was obtained during a part of the interview that allowed proxy responses, such that a knowledgeable adult family member could respond on behalf of adults not taking part in the interview; however, the sample in this table is based on the reported health status (possibly by proxy) for the Sample Adult only. ‘‘Excellent’’ and ‘‘very good’’ are combined in this table, as are ‘‘fair’’ and ‘‘poor.’’ 2

Unknowns for the columns were not included in the denominators when calculating percentages (see Appendix I). Percentages may not add to totals due to rounding. Includes other races not shown separately and persons with unknown education, family income, poverty status, health insurance, and marital status characteristics. 4 In accordance with the 1997 standards for federal data on race and Hispanic or Latino origin (see Appendix II), the category ‘‘One race’’ refers to persons who indicated only a single race group. Persons who indicated a single race other than the groups shown are included in the total for ‘‘One race’’ but are not shown separately due to small sample sizes. Therefore, the frequencies for the category ‘‘One race’’ will be greater than the sum of the frequencies for the specific groups shown separately. Persons of Hispanic or Latino origin may be of any race or combination of races. The tables in this report use the current (1997) Office of Management and Budget race and Hispanic origin terms, and the text uses shorter versions of these terms for conciseness. For example, the category ‘‘One race, Black or African American’’ in the tables is referred to as ‘‘black persons’’ in the text. 3

9 The categories ‘‘Less than $35,000’’ and ‘‘$35,000 or more’’ include both persons reporting dollar amounts and persons reporting only that their incomes were within one of these two categories (see Appendix I). The indented categories include only those persons who reported dollar amounts. Because of the different income questions used in 2007 and beyond, income estimates may not be comparable with those from earlier years. 10

10 Based on family income and family size using the U.S. Census Bureau’s poverty thresholds for the previous calendar year. ‘‘Poor’’ persons are defined as below the poverty threshold. ‘‘Near poor’’ persons have incomes of 100% to less than 200% of the poverty threshold. ‘‘Not poor’’ persons have incomes that are 200% of the poverty threshold or greater. Because of the different income questions used in 2007 and beyond, poverty ratio estimates may not be comparable with those from earlier years. 11 Based on a hierarchy of mutually exclusive categories. Persons with more than one type of health insurance were assigned to the first appropriate category in the hierarchy. Persons under age 65 years and those aged 65 years and over were classified separately due to the predominance of Medicare coverage in the older population. The category ‘‘Private’’ includes persons who had any type of private coverage either alone or in combination with other coverage. For example, for persons aged 65 years and over, ‘‘Private’’ includes persons with only private coverage or private in combination with Medicare coverage. The category ‘‘Uninsured’’ includes persons who had no coverage as well as those who had only Indian Health Service coverage or had only a private plan that paid for one type of service such as accidents or dental care (see Appendix II). 12


NOTES: Estimates are based on household interviews of a sample of the civilian noninstitutionalized population. For age-adjusted percentages, refer to Table 23.

Persons who have smoked at least 100 cigarettes in their lifetime but currently do not smoke at all.

4

Persons who have never smoked at least 100 cigarettes in their lifetime. Unknowns for the columns were not included in the denominators when calculating percentages (see Appendix I). Percentages may not add to totals due to rounding. 6 Includes other races not shown separately and persons with unknown education, family income, poverty status, health insurance, and marital status characteristics. 7 In accordance with the 1997 standards for federal data on race and Hispanic or Latino origin (see Appendix II), the category ‘‘One race’’ refers to persons who indicated only a single race group. Persons who indicated a single race other than the groups shown are included in the total for ‘‘One race’’ but are not shown separately due to small sample sizes. Therefore, the frequencies for the category ‘‘One race’’ will be greater than the sum of the frequencies for the specific groups shown separately. Persons of Hispanic or Latino origin may be of any race or combination of races. The tables in this report use the current (1997) Office of Management and Budget race and Hispanic origin terms, and the text uses shorter versions of these terms for conciseness. For example, the category ‘‘One race, Black or African American’’ in the tables is referred to as ‘‘black persons’’ in the text. 5

† Estimates with a relative standard error greater than 50% are replaced with a dagger and are not shown. * Estimates preceded by an asterisk have a relative standard error greater than 30% and less than or equal to 50% and should be used with caution as they do not meet standards of reliability or precision. 1 Derived from several source questions: ‘‘In ANY ONE YEAR, have you had at least 12 drinks of any type of alcoholic beverage?’’; ‘‘In your ENTIRE LIFE, have you had at least 12 drinks of any type of alcoholic beverage?’’; and ‘‘In the PAST YEAR, how often did you drink any type of alcoholic beverage?’’ 2 Categories are based on the same definitions used in the ‘‘Health, United States’’ publications (see Appendix II) and are derived from respondents’ self-reported responses to a series of questions about alcohol consumption. A lifetime abstainer had fewer than 12 drinks in his or her lifetime; a former drinker had at least 12 drinks in his or her lifetime or in any 1 year AND had no drink in the past year; and a current drinker had at least 12 drinks in his or her lifetime or in any 1 year AND had a drink 1–365 times in the past year. 3

Former infrequent drinkers had at least 12 drinks in their lifetime but fewer than 12 drinks in any 1 year and no drinks in the last year. Former regular drinkers had at least 12 drinks in any 1 year and no drinks in the last year. Current infrequent drinkers had at least 12 drinks in their lifetime and fewer than 12 drinks in the past year, and current regular drinkers had at least 12 drinks in the past year. Former and current drinkers for whom the frequency of consumption or amount consumed was unknown are not included. 4

* Estimates preceded by an asterisk have a relative standard error greater than 30% and less than or equal to 50% and should be used with caution as they do not meet standards of reliability or precision. † Estimates with a relative standard error greater than 50% are replaced with a dagger and are not shown. – Quantity zero. 1 Starting with ‘‘Summary Health Statistics for U.S. Adults: National Health Interview Survey, 2010,’’ measures of physical activity shown are changed to reflect the federal ‘‘2008 Physical Activity Guidelines for Americans’’ (available from: http:// www.health.gov/PAGuidelines/). This new table shows both percentages of adults who met the guidelines’ aerobic component and percentages of adults who met the full physical activity guidelines, including strengthening as well as aerobic activities. The 2008 federal guidelines recommend that for substantial health benefits, adults should perform at least 150 minutes (2 hours and 30 minutes) a week of moderate-intensity or 75 minutes (1 hour and 15 minutes) a week of vigorous-intensity aerobic physical activity, or an equivalent combination. Aerobic activity should be performed in episodes of at least 10 minutes that are preferably spread throughout the week. The guidelines also recommend that adults perform muscle-strengthening activities of moderate or high intensity involving all major muscle groups on 2 or more days a week for additional health benefits. NHIS questions ask about frequency and duration of light- to moderate-intensity and vigorous-intensity leisure-time physical activities, and frequency of leisure-time strengthening activities. Questions are phrased in terms of current behavior and lack a specific reference period. 2 ‘‘Inactive’’ is participating in no leisure-time aerobic activity that lasted at least 10 minutes. ‘‘Insufficiently active’’ is participating in aerobic activities for 10 minutes or more but less than 150 minutes per week. ‘‘Sufficiently active,’’ which meets the 2008 federal physical activity guidelines, is participating in moderate-intensity leisure-time physical activity 150 minutes or more per week, or in vigorous-intensity leisure-time physical activity 75 minutes or more per week, or an equivalent combination. 3 Categories are mutually exclusive. Adults who met neither the aerobic nor muscle-strengthening 2008 federal physical activity guidelines may have engaged in lesser amounts of activity. Meeting only the strengthening guidelines means participating in leisure-time muscle-strengthening activities 2 or more days per week with either no leisure-time aerobic activity or aerobic activity that did not meet the guidelines. Meeting only the aerobic activity guidelines means participating in moderate-intensity leisure-time physical activities 150 minutes or more per week or in vigorous-intensity activities 75 minutes or more per week, or an equivalent combination, and not meeting the strengthening guidelines. Meeting both aerobic and strengthening guidelines is defined in footnote 1. The sum of percentages of adults who met the aerobic-only guidelines and of those who met both the aerobic and strengthening guidelines equals (within rounding error) the percentage of adults identified as ‘‘sufficiently active’’ according to the 2008 federal guidelines for aerobic activity. 4




12 Based on family income and family size using the U.S. Census Bureau’s poverty thresholds for the previous calendar year. ‘‘Poor’’ persons are defined as below the poverty threshold. ‘‘Near poor’’ persons have incomes of 100% to less than 200% of the poverty threshold. ‘‘Not poor’’ persons have incomes that are 200% of the poverty threshold or greater. Because of the different income questions used in 2007 and beyond, poverty ratio estimates may not be comparable with those from earlier years. 13 Based on a hierarchy of mutually exclusive categories. Persons with more than one type of health insurance were assigned to the first appropriate category in the hierarchy. Persons under age 65 years and those aged 65 years and over were classified separately due to the predominance of Medicare coverage in the older population. The category ‘‘Private’’ includes persons who had any type of private coverage either alone or in combination with other coverage. For example, for persons aged 65 years and over, ‘‘Private’’ includes persons with only private coverage or private in combination with Medicare coverage. The category ‘‘Uninsured’’ includes persons who had no coverage as well as those who had only Indian Health Service coverage or had only a private plan that paid for one type of service such as accidents or dental care (see Appendix II). 14

† Estimates with a relative standard error greater than 50% are replaced with a dagger and are not shown. * Estimates preceded by an asterisk have a relative standard error greater than 30% and less than or equal to 50% and should be used with caution as they do not meet standards of reliability or precision. 1 Calculated from information that respondents supplied in response to survey questions regarding height and weight. For both men and women, underweight is indicated by a body mass index (BMI) under 18.5; healthy weight is indicated by BMI of 18.5 up to 25.0; overweight is indicated by BMI of 25.0 up to 30.0; and obesity is indicated by BMI of 30.0 or higher. Note that self-reported height and weight may differ from actual measurements. 2

† Estimates with a relative standard error greater than 50% are replaced with a dagger and are not shown. * Estimates preceded by an asterisk have a relative standard error greater than 30% and less than or equal to 50% and should be used with caution as they do not meet standards of reliability or precision. – Quantity zero. 1 Based on a survey question that asked, ‘‘Is there a place that you usually go to when you are sick or need advice about your health?’’ and if there was at least one such place, then a follow-up question was asked: ‘‘What kind of place [is it/do you go to most often]—a clinic, a doctor’s office, an emergency room, or some other place?’’ The choices for this second question are: ‘‘clinic or health center,’’ ‘‘doctor’s office or HMO,’’ ‘‘hospital emergency room,’’ ‘‘hospital outpatient department,’’ ‘‘some other place,’’ or ‘‘doesn’t go to one place most often.’’ For this table, ‘‘hospital emergency room’’ and ‘‘hospital outpatient department’’ are combined, as are ‘‘some other place’’ and ‘‘doesn’t go to one place most often.’’ 2

HMO is health maintenance organization. Unknowns for the columns were not included in the denominators when calculating percentages (see Appendix I). Percentages may not add to totals due to rounding. 4 Includes other races not shown separately and persons with unknown education, family income, poverty status, health insurance, and marital status characteristics. 5 In accordance with the 1997 standards for federal data on race and Hispanic or Latino origin (see Appendix II), the category ‘‘One race’’ refers to persons who indicated only a single race group. Persons who indicated a single race other than the groups shown are included in the total for ‘‘One race’’ but are not shown separately due to small sample sizes. Therefore, the frequencies for the category ‘‘One race’’ will be greater than the sum of the frequencies for the specific groups shown separately. Persons of Hispanic or Latino origin may be of any race or combination of races. The tables in this report use the current (1997) Office of Management and Budget race and Hispanic origin terms, and the text uses shorter versions of these terms for conciseness. For example, the category ‘‘One race, Black or African American’’ in the tables is referred to as ‘‘black persons’’ in the text. 3

Therefore, the frequencies for the category ‘‘One race’’ will be greater than the sum of the frequencies for the specific groups shown separately. Persons of Hispanic or Latino origin may be of any race or combination of races. The tables in this report use the current (1997) Office of Management and Budget race and Hispanic origin terms, and the text uses shorter versions of these terms for conciseness. For example, the category ‘‘One race, Black or African American’’ in the tables is referred to as ‘‘black persons’’ in the text. 3

1 Based on a survey question that asked respondents, ‘‘Have you ever been tested for HIV?’’ Note that this question is different from the 1999 version, ‘‘Have you ever had your blood tested for the AIDS virus infection?’’ HIV is human immunodeficiency virus. Any HIV test as part of a blood donation is not included. 2

Unknowns for the columns were not included in the denominators when calculating percentages (see Appendix I). The numbers in this table are rounded. Includes other races not shown separately and persons with unknown education, family income, poverty status, health insurance, and marital status characteristics. In accordance with the 1997 standards for federal data on race and Hispanic or Latino origin (see Appendix II), the category ‘‘One race’’ refers to persons who indicated only a single race group.Persons who indicated a single race other than the groups shown are included in the total for ‘‘One race’’ but are not shown separately due to small sample sizes. Therefore, the frequencies for the category ‘‘One race’’ will be greater than the sum of the frequencies for the specific groups shown separately. Persons of Hispanic or Latino origin may be of any race or combination of races.The tables in this report use the current (1997) Office of Management and Budget race and Hispanic origin terms, and the text uses shorter versions of these terms for conciseness. For example, the category ‘‘One race, Black or African American’’ in the tables is referred to as ‘‘black persons’’ in the text. 5 Refers to all persons who indicated more than one race group.Only two combinations of multiple race groups are shown due to small sample sizes for other combinations. Therefore, the frequencies for the category ‘‘Two or more races’’ will be greater than the sum of the frequencies for the specific combinations shown separately. 3 4

Persons of Hispanic or Latino origin may be of any race or combination of races. Similarly, the category ‘‘Not Hispanic or Latino’’ refers to all persons who are not of Hispanic or Latino origin, regardless of race. Shown only for persons aged 25 years and over. 8 GED is General Educational Development high school equivalency diploma. 9 The categories ‘‘Less than $35,000’’ and ‘‘$35,000 or more’’ include both persons reporting dollar amounts and persons reporting only that their incomes were within one of these two categories (see Appendix I). The indented categories include only those persons who reported dollar amounts. Because of the different income questions used in 2007 and beyond, income estimates may not be comparable with those from earlier years. 10 Based on family income and family size using the U.S. Census Bureau’s poverty thresholds for the previous calendar year. ‘‘Poor’’ persons are defined as below the poverty threshold.Near poor’’ persons have incomes of 100% to less than 200% of the poverty threshold. ‘‘Not poor’’ persons have incomes that are 200% of the poverty threshold or greater. Because of the different income questions used in 2007 and beyond, poverty ratio estimates may not be comparable with those from earlier years. 11 Based on a hierarchy of mutually exclusive categories. Persons with more than one type of health insurance were assigned to the first appropriate category in the hierarchy. Persons under age 65 years and those aged 65 years and over were classified separately due to the predominance of Medicare coverage in the older population. The category ‘‘Private’’ includes persons who had any type of private coverage either alone or in combination with other coverage. For example, for persons aged 65 years and over, ‘‘Private’’ includes persons with only private coverage or private in combination with Medicare coverage. The category ‘‘Uninsured’’ includes persons who had no coverage as well as those who had only Indian Health Service coverage or had only a private plan that paid for one type of service such as accidents or dental care (see Appendix II). 7

12 MSA is metropolitan statistical area. Large MSAs have a population size of 1 million or more; small MSAs have a population size of less than 1 million. ‘‘Not in MSA’’ consists of persons not living in a metropolitan statistical area.
