Massachusetts Health Reform Survey, 2012

This study contains data from the sixth round of the Massachusetts Health Reform Survey (MHRS), a survey designed to track the impact of Massachusetts health care reform legislation passed in 2006. Topics covered by the survey include health status, access to health care, health care utilization, health insurance coverage, health insurance premiums, out-of-pocket health care costs, medical debt, and demographic and socioeconomic characteristics. The survey also questioned the respondents about the burden of their health care spending, asked them to rate various aspects of their health insurance coverage, and asked how confident they felt they would be able to keep their current coverage in the coming year.
