National Mortality Followback Survey
Definition
- The National Mortality Followback Survey (NMFS) has been conducted sporadically since 1961 by the National Center for Health Statistics (NCHS) to collect information on various specific topics related to mortality in the United States, including the events and circumstances that preceded death, and relevant characteristics of the decedent. The NMFS has been conducted six times: four times in the 1960s, in 1986, and most recently, in 1993. [Source: Encyclopedia of Epidemiology; National Mortality Followback Survey]
