Notes:               As stated by the source, the Health Care Satellite Account presents
                     two versions of the accounts. One version uses data from the Medical
                     Expenditure Panel Survey (MEPS) - referred to as the "MEPS Account" -
                     which is the only nationally representative survey that contains
                     detailed expenditure information by disease. Due to the relatively
                     small sample size the MEPS Account produces more volatile estimates
                     across years. To address this issue, BEA presents a second version of
                     the satellite account - referred to as the "Blended Account" - which
                     blends together data from multiple sources, including large claims
                     databases that cover millions of enrollees and billions of claims. The
                     key difference is that the MEPS Account and Blended Account use
                     different methodologies and data sources to allocate expenditures
                     across different diseases within the medical services by disease
                     category.
