Codes

Description

INSHHORG indicates whether the household member is covered by a community health insurance program. Community health insurance programs, also called "micro" or "local" health insurance, involve prepayment and the pooling of resources to cover the cost of health-related events, generally for low-income populations. The "community" may consist of residents of the same town or district, members of a work group, families living near a health facility, or some other definition.
