"Survey" package and NAMCS data... unsure of specification
...latory Medical Care Survey, and am having some difficulty translating
the analysis keywords from one package (Stata) to the other (R). The data
were collected using a multistage probability sampling, and there are
variables included to identify the sampling units and weights. Documentation
from the NAMCS describes this for Stata as follows (note the variable names
in the data are in caps):
The pweight (PATWT), strata (CSTRATM), and PSU (CPSUM) are set with the
svyset command as
follows:
svyset pweight PATWT
svyset strata CSTRATM
svyset psu CPSUM
They provide similar instructions for SUDAAN: as...

in, though, it occurred to me that someone may already have gone to the 
trouble of writing code that will bring in the data and assign the variable 
names and value labels. This is a big file, so doing it from scratch will 
take
