The National Center for Health Statistics (NCHS) employs the Research and Development Survey (RANDS) to test new questions, methodologies, and survey designs. As technology advances, the role of digital tools and methodologies has become integral in refining RANDS data collection processes. This paper explores how technology enhances the efficiency, accuracy, and scope of RANDS surveys. It delves into the specific technological innovations employed, their impact on survey results, and the challenges faced in integrating these tools. Through a comprehensive analysis, the paper underscores the transformative role of technology in modern survey data collection.
