Questions and instructions

Question pretext

I am now going to read you stories about people's experiences with health care services. I wanted you to think about these people's experiences as if they were your own. Once I have finished reading each story, I will ask you to rate what happened in th estory as very good, good, moderate, bad or very bad.

Use in vignettes country specific female/male first names to match sex of the respondent (with exceptions specified in the "Guide to Administration and Question by Question Specifications").

When [Jasmina’s] had treatment for infertility, the doctor gave her some pills and asked her to return in two weeks. He didn’t ask her whether she wanted to
know anything about her health condition nor suggest different alternatives that might have suited her better.
