Warning: these figures indicate the number of cases found in the data file. They cannot be interpreted as summary statistics of the population of interest.
These questions (Q7028-Q7031) are aimed at finding out how many administrative problems people face when using or trying to use the health system. Some of these problems might arise when coming into contact directly with health care providers (e.g. some hospitals assess your income before deciding to charge you a certain rate), or the problems might arise when a person has or tries to get insurance. The option of “not applicable” is included as the respondents might not have had some of the described experiences.
