Definition
ATNE3 indicates whether, in response to an open-ended question, the woman reported a public national hospital as a source for testing for the AIDS virus. This response category is country-specific to Niger.
Some samples in the "AT" 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.
ATNE3 is combined with ATNE4 (public regional hospital) and ATNE5 (public district hospital) in ATPUBHOS (all public hospitals) for the 2012 Niger sample. IPUMS-DHS users interested in using ATNE3 are encouraged to review ATPUBHOS for a more comprehensive response category.
