Description

Definition

For young children with a fever or cough in the past 2 weeks, FEVTRML6 indicates, in response to an open-ended question, whether the child received treatment at a community health center for this illness. This response category is country-specific to Mali.

Some samples in the "FEVTR" 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.

FEVTRML6 is combined with FEVTRML5 (reference health center) in FEVTRPUBHC (all public health centers) for the 2012 Mali sample. IPUMS-DHS users interested in using FEVTRML6 are encouraged to review FEVTRPUBHC for a more comprehensive response category.
