- Description
- A Brief Background on Medical Cost Data Sought by the Bureau of Labor Statistics: The Bureau of Labor Statistics (BLS) is engaged in a research project to develop experimental price indexes for the medical care component of the Consumer Price Index. The research is the result of a recommendation in the CNSTAT report that the BLS explore the use of retrospective claims databases in the construction of the price indexes for medical care. To support this research the BLS is seeking medical insurance claims data that contains the diagnosis, the treatment, the out-of-pocket costs, and the insurance reimbursement for individual medical services provided to insurance policyholders. Companies that possess such data and are willing to provide a sample for research evaluation purposes should respond in writing as follows: (1) Provide a description of the data that would be made available, (2) State the circumstances under which the company would allow the BLS to sample the data. (If a written agreement is required, provide a copy.) (3) State the cost for providing the data samples. Responses must reference this solicitation number and state the company name, address, phone number, and the name of a contact person. Responses by fax or e-mail are encouraged, and should be sent to the designated point of contact (below). Responses that are sent by mail should be addressed to the designated contact at the following address: Bureau of Labor Statistics, PSB Room 1830, 2 Massachusetts Avenue, NE, Washington, DC 20212. All responses must be received by March 18, 2004.
