Description

FPNONTD5 indicates whether, in response to an open-ended question, the woman reported a business health center as a source of family planning. This response category is country-specific to Chad.

Some samples in the "FPNON" 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.

FPNONTD5 is combined with FPNONTD11 (private hospital) in FPNONPRIVHOS (all private hospitals and health centers) for the 2014 Chad sample.

IPUMS DHS users interested in using FPNONTD5 are encouraged to review FPNONPRIVHOS for a more comprehensive response category.

Comparability
