Definition
TBCARENP2 indicates whether, in response to an open-ended question, the respondent reported she would prefer to seek care at a private hospital or nursing home if she had tuberculosis. This response category is country-specific to Nepal.
Some samples in the "TBCARE" 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.
TBCARENP2 is combined with TBCARENP3 (private clinic) in TBCAREPRIVHOS (all private hospitals and clinics) for the 2016 Nepal sample. IPUMS-DHS users interested in using TBCARENP2 are encouraged to review TBCAREPRIVHOS for a more comprehensive response category.
