Abstract
In household panel surveys, the same households and individuals are interviewed at multiple time points and then information is obtained from them. Panel studies have considerable analytical advantages over one-time surveys such as analysis of gross change, analysis of unit-level change, analysis of time related characteristics of events and identifying causality [1,2]. However, panel surveys often suffer from a high degree of panel attrition between waves, where panel attrition means the continued loss of respondents from the original sample due to mortality, migration between waves and survey non-response [2,3].

In household panel surveys, the same households and individuals are interviewed at multiple time points and information is obtained from them
The Korean Health Panel (KHP) survey is a household panel survey conducted by the Korean Institute for Health and Social Affairs
In the first stage of selection, 389 census districts were selected by the probability proportional to cluster size sampling method and 10 households were selected randomly in the selected census districts in the stage [6]. When it was introduced in the 2008 reference year, the survey was intended to provide longitudinal data as well as crosssectional data, but over the years, the precision of cross-sectional estimates become lower and lower because of panel attrition
