Future Elderly Model (FEM) Files

These files support the running of the Future Elderly Model (FEM), a microsimulation developed and maintained by the Roybal Center for Health Policy Simulation within the Leonard D. Schaeffer Center for Health Policy and Economics at the University of Southern California. Because of the complexity of the simulation, support for these files outside a collaboration will not be provided. For more information or interest in collaboration, please refer to the FEM website.

Note: This researcher contribution contains all input files necessary for the FEM simulation. The input files are provided in Stata format, but access to the Stata statistical package is not required since the simulation program for which these files are designed can read Stata files directly.

Contributed projects based on HRS public data are provided by researchers who want to share their work with the research community. Researchers interested in contributing their own products are invited to contact us at hrsquestions@umich.edu. HRS does not produce or support these products and is not responsible for their content or use. They are provided here as a service to the research community.
