Adults - National Health Interview Survey (NHIS)

National Health Interview Survey logo

The NHIS is a nationwide survey of adults providing information on vaccinations and other health data. The National Health Interview Survey (NHIS) has monitored the health of the nation since 1957. NHIS data on a broad range of health topics are collected through personal household interviews. For over 50 years, the U.S. Census Bureau has been the data collection agent for the National Health Interview Survey. Survey results have been instrumental in providing data to track health status, healthcare access, and progress towards achieving national healthcare objectives.
