Description
For adults 18 and older who completed the Social and Health Experiences (SHE) self-administered questionnaire (SDOHELIG) via the paper form, SDOHPROX reports whether the respondent completed the questionnaire themselves or whether the questionnaire was completed by a proxy. If it was completed by a proxy, it identifies the relationship of the proxy to the respondent. SDOHPROX is one of the variables included in the Social Determinants of Health (SDOH) supplement fielded via the 2021 SHE pencil-and-paper questionnaire. The SHE questionnaire was the first MEPS-HC questionnaire to be fielded using paper and web modes. Please see SATISFIED for more information on the SDOH supplement, including a complete list of variables fielded on the 2021 SHE.
