Outcome Measures

Primary Outcomes (11)

• Self-assessed health status

  Respondents will be asked to rate their health with the "in general, would you say that your health is excellent, very good, good, fair, or poor?" question. The answer that they choose represents their self-assessed (self-rated) health status.

  Upon enrollment

• Quality of life indicator measured by the 3-level version of the EuroQol-5 Dimension questionnaire (EQ-5D-3L) - health profile (state)

  The EQ-5D-3L questionnaire consists of 5 questions in 5 domains: mobility, self-care, usual activities, pain/discomfort, and anxiety/depression. In the 3-level version of the questionnaire, each domain has 3 levels. The 5 answers to the 5 questions are combined into a 5-digit number that describes the patients' health profile (state).

  Upon enrollment

• The visual analogue scale score (EQ-VAS)

  The EQ-VAS records the patients' self rated-health on a scale from 0 to 100, where 0 = the worst imaginable health and 100 = the best imaginable health.

  Upon enrollment

• Disability and functional limitations according to the Washington Group Short Set on Functioning questionnaire (WG-SS)

  The WG-SS questionnaire is comprised of 6 questions about 6 core functional domains: seeing, hearing, walking, cognition, self-care, and communication. Each question has four response categories: " no difficulty", " some difficulty", "a lot of difficulty", "cannot do it at all". Disability is identified for individuals whose answer to at least one of the questions is "have a lot of difficulty" or "cannot do at all". Presence of functional limitations is also determined within each domain for each person if their answer to a question about the domain is either "have a lot of difficulty" or "cannot do at all".

  Upon enrollment

• Body Mass Index (BMI)

  Self-reported height (in meters) and self-reported weight (in kilograms) will be combined to measure BMI as a person's weight divided by the square of their height.

  Upon enrollment

• Smoking behaviour

  Respondents will be asked whether they are current smokers or not, and if so, they will be questioned about smoking devices they use, their smoking frequency, intensity of smoking, smoking history and intentions to quit smoking.

  Upon enrollment

• Alcohol consumption

  Respondents will be asked whether they consume alcoholic beverages or not, and if so, they will be asked about the volume of consumed alcoholic beverages.

  Upon enrollment

• Physical activity

  The frequency of physical activity and sedentary time will cover the physical activity section.

  Upon enrollment

• Health care utilisation and patient choice between public and private health care providers

  Respondents will be asked whether they visited a health care provider in the last 12 months. They will be asked to specify whether they chose to go to a public health care provider, to a private health care provider or whether they went to both types of providers.

  Upon enrollment

• Satisfaction with health care services provided

  Respondents will be asked 4 questions about their satisfaction with their most recent visit to a health care provider in the last 12 months. They will be asked to rate how clear their doctor's explanation of their health problem was on a 5-level scale, how clear the doctor's explanation of their treatment options was on a 5-level scale, whether they trusted their doctor (fully trusted, partially trusted, or did not trust at all), and whether they would choose to get the same health care service at the same facility again if they had to (yes/no question).

  Upon enrollment

• Nonreceipt of needed medical care and nonreceipt of needed prescription drugs

  This outcome measure refers to three types of cases of unmet needs: * Respondents will be surveyed about cases when they went to a health care provider but were refused services. If respondents report that such an instance occurred in the last 12 months, they will be asked to specify the reason for the refusal that they were given. * Respondents will also be asked whether they wanted to seek help for some health problem but ultimately decided not to in the last 12 months. If respondents report deciding not to seek care, they will be asked to specify the reasons that guided their decision. * Respondents will also be asked whether they were prescribed some medication but ultimately decided not to buy it in the last 12 months. If respondents report deciding not to buy prescribed drugs, they will be asked to specify the reasons that guided their decision.
