Description

Definition
For children with a fever or cough in the past 2 weeks, FEVTRNP6 indicates, in response to an open-ended question, whether the child received treatment from the non-governmental organizations United Mission for Nepal (UMN) or the Red Cross for this illness. This response category is country-specific to Nepal.

Some samples in the "FEVTR" series include multiple categories that can be consolidated into a single broad response. IPUMS-DHS uses supplemental programming to combine these responses in a standard variable, while also preserving the separate responses in country-specific variables.

FEVTRNP6 is combined with other NGOs in the 2001, 2006, and 2011 Nepal surveys.

In the 2001 and 2006 Nepal surveys, FEVTRNP6 is combined with FEVTRNP9 (other NGOs) in FEVTRNGO (all NGOs).
In the 2011 Nepal survey, FEVTRNP6 is combined with FEVTRNP7 (Family Planning Association of Nepal) and FEVTRNP9 (other NGOs) in FEVTRNGO (all NGOs).


IPUMS-DHS users interested in using FEVTRNP6 are encouraged to review FEVTRNGO for a more comprehensive response category.
