These national tables describe visits to office-based physicians in the United States using the 2016 National Ambulatory Medical Care Survey. They bring together information on patient characteristics, diagnoses, reasons for visits, services, medications and the organization of physician practices.
The introductory methods explain the survey’s revised two-stage design, physician participation, weighting and the limits of the resulting estimates. Tables retain standard errors and explanatory notes, allowing readers to distinguish national estimates from the observations on which they are based. This complete publication concerns the office-based component of NAMCS; its 2016 survey year is distinct from the later publication of the tables.
