Review of American Health Statistical Survey System

The collection and analysis of health data are significant to understand the health situations of different countries and regions. The United States started to carry out health statistics surveys early and has formed a relatively complete system of surveys. The paper introduced and ana- lyzed the system of surveys in 4 aspects： implementing agencies, legal status, investigation and data collection and release system, which may pro- vide certain reference for our country to improve the operation of health statistics surveys. It is concluded that the health statistical survey system of the U.S. has clear divisions of organization and detailed comprehensive legal system. The routine surveys and special surveys provide mutual comple- mentation health data. The survey design and sampling methods constantly update and improve. A variety of ways of surveys are showed, such as in- terview, telephone survey and medical records. Data network and publications release information about health in a timely manner.
