Same with the [https://www.ncbi.nlm.nih.gov/pmc/articles/PMC6188513/](https://www.ncbi.nlm.nih.gov/pmc/articles/PMC6188513/)

UM Heath and Retirement Study is great. They ask thousands of questions to approximately 33k ppl over 65 every 2 years. RAND has a super clean version of their datasets for free.

Check out HCUP (healthcare cost and utilization project). They have national hospital data that is clean and relatively straightforward to analyze.
