percentage of revenue by class of
customer (for selected industries) on a
quarterly basis. In addition, the QSS
provides the only current quarterly
measure of total expenses from taxexempt firms in industries that have a
large not-for-profit component. All
respondent data are received by mail,
facsimile, telephone, or Internet
reporting.
The total revenue estimates produced
from the QSS provide current trends of
economic activity in the service
industry in the United States from
service providers with paid employees.
In addition to revenue, we also collect
total expenses from tax-exempt firms in
industries that have a large not-for-profit
component. Expenses provide a better
measure of the economic activity of
these firms. Expense estimates produced
by the QSS, in addition to inpatient
days and discharges for the hospital
industry, are used by the Centers for
Medicare and Medicaid Services (CMS)
to project and study hospital regulation,
Medicare payment adequacy, and other
related projects. For select industries in
the Arts, entertainment, and recreation
sector, the survey produces estimates of
admissions revenue.
We will continue to publish no later
than 75 days after the end of each
calendar quarter.
Reliable measures of economic
activity are essential to an objective
assessment of the need for, and impact
of, a wide range of public policy
decisions. The QSS supports these
measures by providing the latest
estimates of service industry output on
a quarterly basis.
Currently, the U.S. Census Bureau
collects, tabulates, and publishes
estimates to provide, with measurable
reliability, statistics on domestic service
total revenue, total expenses, and
percentage of revenue by class of
customer for select service providers. In
addition, the QSS produces estimates
for inpatient days and discharges for
hospitals. In the future, QSS may
produce breakdowns of revenue from
financial firms. This depends on the
quality and amount of data received as
well as its reliability and accuracy.
The BEA is the primary Federal user
of QSS results. The BEA utilizes the
QSS estimates to make improvements to
the national accounts for service
industries. In the National Income and
Product Accounts (NIPA), the QSS
estimates allow more accurate estimates
of both Personal Consumption
Expenditures (PCE) and private fixed
investment. For example, recently
published revisions to the quarterly
NIPA estimates resulted from the
incorporation of new source data from

the QSS. Revenue estimates from the
QSS are also used to produce estimates
of gross output by industry that allow
BEA to produce a much earlier release
of the gross domestic product by
industry estimates.
Estimates produced from the QSS are
used by the BEA as a component of
quarterly GDP estimates. The estimates
also provide the Federal Reserve Board
(FRB) and Council of Economic
Advisors (CEA) with timely information
on current economic performance. All
estimates collected from this survey are
used extensively by various government
agencies and departments on economic
policy decisions; private businesses;
trade organizations; professional
associations; academia; and other
various business research and analysis
organizations.
The CMS uses the QSS estimates to
develop hospital spending estimates in
the National Accounts. In addition, the
QSS estimates improve their ability to
analyze hospital spending trends. The
CMS also uses the estimates in its
healthcare indicator analysis
publication; ten-year health spending
forecast estimates; and studies in
hospital regulation and Medicare policy,
procedures, and trends.
The Medicare Payment Advisory
Commission (MedPac) utilizes the QSS
estimates to assess payment adequacy in
the current Medicare program.
The FRB and the CEA use the QSS
information to better assess current
economic performance. In addition,
other government agencies, businesses,
and investors use the QSS estimates for
market research, industry growth,
business planning and forecasting.
