We estimate the Medical Expenditure Panel Survey – Insurance Component will take 45 minutes, on average, to complete, including time for reviewing instructions, searching existing data sources, gathering and maintaining the data needed, and completing and reviewing the collection of information. If you offered more than two plans, we estimate an extra 11 minutes per additional plan. Factors such as company size, complexity and activity will affect your actual time to complete the survey.
