Description

Definition
ATSN3 indicates whether, in response to an open-ended question, the woman reported a government health center as a place to be tested for the AIDS virus. This response category is country-specific to Senegal.

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.

ATSN3 is combined with ATSN4 (community health center) in ATPUBHC (all public health centers) for the 2017 Senegal sample. IPUMS-DHS users interested in using ATSN3 are encouraged to review ATPUBHC for a more comprehensive response category.
