Yet, it was possible to transfer the district codes into 4 and 9 categories, respectively, that describe the level of urbanization according to the categorization system of the German Federal Institute for Research on Building, Urban Affairs and Spatial Development. To allow for sensitivity analysis, we transferred the codes to both systems. Additionally, information on the federal state of the residential area is available. Sample and Data Linkage For all selected participants, a pseudonym was used. Participants received the described questionnaire and a letter of informed consent (both with their pseudonym) as well as information on data protection. In the letter of informed consent, participants agreed to the linkage of selected individual-level SHI administrative claims data with their respective survey data. Only data of participants who completed the questionnaire and signed the informed consent will be included in further analyses (see Figure). Via the pseudonyms, the survey data will be linked with the claims data at individual-level. Pseudonyms will be deleted after the linkage to generate anonymous data. Figure 1 While the questionnaire was mailed at the end of October 2013, it included several questions relating to the last 12 months (eg, the questions on health system responsiveness). The SHI administrative claims data cover 6 quarters, from April 2012 through September 2013, and hence overlap with the retrospective survey data. Data Cleaning and Planned Analysis All analyses will be conducted on a cleaned dataset with cases that fulfil the following minimum requirements regarding data quality. As all planned analyses need information from both data sources, only the cases with linked questionnaire and claims data will be included. Questionnaire data will be excluded if parts from the questionnaire (eg, whole pages, or cut-outs from pages) are missing. In addition, if more than 50% of the questionnaire pages are not completed, or if systematically the front- or the backside from the questionnaire is not filled-in, cases will also be excluded. As all planned analyses will include information on the sociodemographic characteristics provided in the questionnaire, cases without any of this information will also be excluded. The planned data analyses incorporate various strategies: these include descriptive analyses, multivariate analyses as well as the modelling of heterogeneous reporting behaviour based on answers to anchoring vignettes. Special attention will be paid to the comparison of different PLX-4720 concentration groups, eg, DMP-participants and nonparticipants and suitable methods will be applied to account for group differences. Differences in reporting behaviour regarding the health system responsiveness-items will be analysed by means of the included anchoring vignettes.4 Preliminary Results and Feasibility A total sample of 51?998 persons was contacted.
