It appears that the SHADAC-generated Summary Health Insurance variables have not yet been released for the 2014 ASEC. Is there currently an anticipated timeline for their release?

Due to a re-design of the health insurance coverage questions found in the Current Population Survey, the SHADAC-Enhanced series of health insurance variables has been discontinued. As a result, IPUMS-CPS does not anticipate releasing [Summary Health Insurance](https://cps.ipums.org/cps-action/variables/group?id=summinsur) variables for 2014.

Sorry that I could not deliver better news.
