At Guma’ Tinemtom – Micronesia Data Laboratory, we are committed to establishing ourselves as the principal source of information on the health of our island’s people. A key project towards this goal is to conduct the first Guam National Health Interview Survey (GNHIS), which is modeled after the National Health Interview Survey (NHIS). The data collected will serve both to better understand the amount, distribution, and effects of illness and disability on Guam, and to inform health data storage suitability in our Guma’ Tinetom – Micronesia Data Laboratory.
