Session description: Session highlights how to work with restricted datasets for meaningful analysis and publication. RCMAR Scientists and Faculty share experiences working together on pilot project using California Health Interview Survey (CHIS). We are also joined by Dr. Kietzman, who currently leads a CHIS study to assess population-level need for, and access to, long-term services and supports in California. Her recent studies also include an evaluation of how older adults with serious mental illness are served through California’s public mental health delivery system, and an investigation of how dual eligible health care consumers (i.e., those insured by both Medicare and Medi-Cal) access and use information to make decisions about their health care options.
