Description
ATRTD8 indicates whether, in response to an open-ended question, the woman reported a private corporate health center as a potential source of treatment for HIV/AIDS. This variable is country-specific to Chad.
Some samples in the "ATR" series include multiple categories that can be consolidated into a single broad response. IPUMS DHS uses supplemental programming to combine these responses in a standard variable, while also preserving the separate responses in country-specific variables.
ATRTD8 (private corporate health center) is combined with ATRTD7 (private health center) in ATRPRIVHC (all private health centers) for the 2004 Chad sample. IPUMS DHS users interested in using ATRTD8 are encouraged to review ATRPRIVHC for a more comprehensive response category.
