Question pretext
Household Expenditure:
I would like to ask you more specific questions about how much your household spent on health services. When answering these questions, think about all of the times that any household member used a health service in the last 4 weeks. Please exclude costs to be reimbursed by insurance and any transportation costs.
Literal question
In the last 12 months, how many times did members of your household go to a hospital and stay overnight?
Interviewer instructions
The answer should represent the total number of events for which any member of the household went to a hospital and stayed overnight. If household members had stayed overnight in hospitals for a natural birth, treatment of trauma from a traffic accident, and an appendectomy, the answer would be “3” regardless of whether these three events happened to the same person or different persons in the household.
ENTER NUMBER OF TIMES FOR ALL HOUSEHOLD MEMBERS IN TOTAL. IF NONE, ENTER "0"
If None: Go to Q0817
