Description
For all persons eligible for the Access to Care section (ACCESSELIG) with a usual source of care (USUALPL), USCPRRSPCT indicates how often the individual's usual source of care provider shows respect for the types of medical, traditional, and alternative treatments with which the person is happy. For those whose usual source of care provider is a facility (USCPRFAC), USCPRRSPCT asks about "a medical person at" their usual source of care.
USCPRRSPCT is collected as part of the Access to Care section, which gathers information on usual source of care for all family members, characteristics of usual source of care health providers, and barriers family members have faced in obtaining needed health care. Please see USCPROTHCARE for all variables describing the respondent's satisfaction with their usual source of care and ACCESSELIG for more information about the Access to Care section.
IPUMS MEPS reports the universe for each variable based on a thorough review of the original MEPS documentation. Investigating the data may reveal cases that do not meet the stated universe. Users are encouraged to validate universes for their analyses.
