Workshops and Materials
The Agency for Healthcare Research and Quality (AHRQ) conducts several workshops
throughout the year. These workshops provide both practical information about MEPS public use data files
and an opportunity to construct analytic files with the
assistance of AHRQ staff. The workshops are designed for health services researchers who have a background
or interest in using national health surveys. More details about the material presented in MEPS workshops are available in the online workbook
and SAS® programming examples.
