Description

MOVSURG reports if the person has ever received surgery for most important health condition she/he treated with a therapeutic movement technique. Please see the Comparability and Universe tabs for more information on changes in this variable over time.

Comparability

Prior to 2012, in universe persons were asked about a series of specific health problems, symptoms, or conditions they may have treated with different complementary and alternative medicine (CAM) therapies. Beginning in 2012, in universe persons were asked to select three of sixteen therapies that were most important and only asked the series of questions related to treating health problems, symptoms, or conditions about these top three therapies. Persons who did not include a therapeutic movement technique among their top three CAM therapies did not answer follow-up questions for this therapy and are reported as responding no. There are no comparability issues.
