Description
DELPAYHOTH_ALL indicates whether, in response to an open-ended question, the female respondent reported receiving financial assistance from some other source for delivery care. The meaning of "other" must be interpreted relative to the specific categories included in a particular sample.
DELPAYHOTH_ALL consists of a set of up to six separate variables, covering the most recent birth (DELPAYHOTH_01) up to the sixth-most-recent birth (i.e., DELPAYHOTH_02, DELPAYHOTH_03, DELPAYHOTH_04, DELPAYHOTH_05, and DELPAYHOTH_06) during the reference period prior to the survey. If DELPAYHOTH_ALL is included in a data extract, all these separate variables are included in a researcher's data file.
