Description

Definition
HCAREKMAWAY reports the distance from the dwelling to the nearest health facility, in kilometers.

The information in HCAREKMAWAY is taken from the household record and applies to regular household residents, not temporary visitors. Researchers may wish to exclude visitors using the RESIDENT variable (with visitors coded "2") when women, children, or births are the unit of analysis, and using the HHRESIDENT variable when household members are the unit of analysis.
