Description

NOCARECOSTYR indicates whether any member of the household was denied health care in the past year because of inability to pay.

The information in NOCARECOSTYR is taken from the household record and applies to regular household residents, not temporary visitors. Researchers may wish to exclude visitors using the RESIDENT variable (with visitors coded "2") when women, children, or births are the unit of analysis, and using the HHRESIDENT variable when household members are the unit of analysis.
