Definition
For children with diarrhea in the past 2 weeks, DIATRML7 indicates, in response to an open-ended question, whether the child received treatment from a public "maternity clinic/dispensary." This response category is country-specific to Mali.
Although IPUMS-DHS integrates "public dispensary" across some samples (see DIATRPUBDRUG), DIATRML7 is not included in that integrated variable because this response consolidates multiple sources into a single category.
