HCC

HCC links primary data collected from households, employers, and public agency administrators with secondary data sources. For the household survey, the main component of HCC, we obtained a nationally representative sample (9,585 respondents) with a large percentage of persons with ADM need by conducting a follow-up study of participants in the Community Tracking Study (CTS), but oversampling persons with ADM need or service utilization. For the HCC employer survey, we surveyed employers who were identified as providing healthcare benefits by household survey respondents. The survey collected information on mental health and substance abuse benefits from 875 employers. The public agency administrator survey gathered data on how the states fund, organize and deliver ADM care from 50 state Medicaid agency administrators and 50 state mental health agency commissioners.

Healthcare for Communities is designed to provide information on how the healthcare system is functioning and changing for people with alcohol, drug abuse and mental health conditions. HCC tracks changes in health policy, health care delivery, access to care, and costs and outcomes of care related to ADM conditions.
