Description

Definition
For children with a fever or cough in the past 2 weeks, FEVTRAF1 indicates, in response to an open-ended question, whether the child received treatment from a public comprehensive health center/polyclinic. This response category is country-specific to Afghanistan.

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

FEVTRAF1 is combined with FEVTRAF2 (public basic health center), and FEVTRAF3 (public health sub-center) in FEVTRPUBHC (all public health centers) for the 2015 Afghanistan sample. IPUMS-DHS users interested in using FEVTRAF1 are encouraged to review FEVTRPUBHC for a more comprehensive response category.
