Thus, the types of data collected, the frequency of data collection, the location of data collection, and the collection methods may be optimal for enforcement activities but are less than ideal for public health surveillance use.

Beichuan County (one of the counties in Sichuan; it is the location of data collection for this study) was the epicenter.
A second limitation concerns the location of data collection.
The study had to meet certain quality standards, which includes having a description of the intervention and analysis, detailing the time and location of data collection, and clearly stating the year and currency of presented costs.
In a review of satisfaction with healthcare, the location of data collection was found to moderate the level of satisfaction reported, with on site surveys generating less critical response [ 8].
Extracted information included study type, year(s), and location of data collection, sample recruitment method, number of women included in the study, number of live births, age at assessment of children's HCV infection status, and definition of HCV infection among children, as well as the number of children followed up and the number considered infected, separately by maternal HIV serostatus.
Furthermore, given that in the present study, the HRQoL instruments were all completed in an outpatient clinic, no insight can be offered as to the effect of varying location of data collection (e.g., hospital ward, outpatient clinic, home, and classroom).
Studies that used face-to-face interviews increased their retention rates by 24% by offering alternative locations and modes of data collection.
