Interviewer instructions

You should record the response that corresponds to the “best” action taken. For example, suppose a respondent went to a public clinic and a hospital for heart disease. Then you should record code 7 for “sought treatment at a hospital” because this represents the highest quality of healthcare the respondent sought out.

Question post text

if code 3,4,5,6,7 and 8, skip to Q7.
