SHADAC will host a webinar on April 23, 2014, to provide a virtual tour of the new SHADAC Data Center.
The redesigned Data Center offers improved functionality and broader appeal through an expanded range of topics, data sources, and visualization options.
As always, Data Center users can study health insurance coverage using the most current coverage estimates from the American Community Survey (ACS), the Current Population Survey (CPS), and the SHADAC-Enhanced CPS. However, the Data Center now offers the following as well:
New Topics
- Characteristics of the uninsured (e.g., age, sex, family type, income)
- Access to care
- Access to and cost of employer-sponsored insurance
New Data Sources
- Behavior Risk Factor Surveillance System (BRFSS)
- Medical Expenditure Panel Survey - Insurance Component (MEPS-IC)
New Ways to Display Estimates
- Maps
- Bar Charts
- Trend Lines
SHADAC Senior Research Fellow Joanna Turner will lead the virtual tour of the redesigned Data Center, familiarizing attendees with the enhancements to the site.
This event is free and open to the public. We hope you can join us.
