Limitations

• 1986 falls within the two year limit for "Cannot Locate" following the revisions to registrations and PHIN in 1984/01 - we expect some cases were believed absent but the dates of coverage extended to June, 1986.
  
  
• 1996 falls AFTER a major mailing related to the Drug Program Information Network (DPIN) system and the release of personal PHINs to the public. We expect the registries to be reasonably accurate (for a short time) but some of the "cannot locate group" and other non-resident registrants will persist and show coverage on June 1, 1996.
  
  
• It is difficult to present residence areas from both registries and census in a single table - the discrepancies in coding disguise or exaggerate apparent discrepancies in N.

Comparisons

Each MH registration snapshot for persons having coverage is limited in accuracy due to underreporting of newborns, exclusions of new arrivals in MB and cancellations between March and June. Overall, expect a net over-counting due to timing of these files. Due to the application of all available information including retroactive cancellations, deaths in institutions, cross-references among registries, and inclusion of personal care data, the results from the research registry are expected to be better than either snapshot.
