Description
For sample adults aged 18 and over and sample children aged 4-17 who reported using at least two top complementary or alternative medicine (CAM) therapies, USMEDFAIL2 reports if the person used the second CAM therapy because medical treatments did not work for his/her health problems. USMEDFAIL2 can be paired with CAMTHER2, which reports the corresponding CAM therapy that was used because medical treatments did not work for his/her health problems.
