The Ohio Family Health Survey (OFHS) Series is Ohio’s benchmark repeat-series popula-tion-based health research project, that began in 1998. Subsequent surveys have been conducted in 2004, 2008 and 2010. Its mission is to inform state and local policy makers concerning the impact of health care reform strategies on the State of Ohio and its citi-zens. The OFHS survey data is also commonly used to assist local organizations with their community health planning needs and by organizations in preparing for various health care grants. The survey questions include health status, health care access, utilization, insurance status, and demographics of Ohioans. Current survey sponsors include the Ohio Departments of Insurance, Job and Family Services, Health, and Mental Health and the Health Foundation of Greater Cincinnati.
