    ๐Ÿ“… Deadline to comment: February 3, 2026.

    The U.S. Census Bureau is requesting public comment on the utility of data collected through the NSCH and ways the survey can be enhanced in the future. Specific plans for 2026 include increasing the survey sample so that reliable state-level estimates can be produced with fewer years of pooled data and continuing to oversample specific populations in California and eight other states.
