Description
This report is intended to provide an overview of the information collected in the 2000 Utah Child
Health Survey. The survey was designed to address the important health issues among Utah children, including
health insurance coverage, special health care needs, and patterns of health care delivery and utilization. Two
overview reports have been produced: this report, which provides information on a sample representative of
all Utah children, and another that reports on the subgroup of children with special health care needs. A report
on insurance coverage for children, and one taking a more in-depth look at children with special health care
needs are also planned for publication.
This report presents a Summary of Findings, followed by six sections that provide demographic breakouts
and age/sex graphs for selected questionnaire items. Although we would have liked to provide survey results
for race and ethnic subgroups, the sample sizes in most race categories were not large enough to provide
reliable estimates. We were, however, able to provide Hispanic ethnicity estimates with reasonable precision
for most survey variables.
