Codes and Frequencies
Description
For women who gave birth in the 5 years before the survey, who delivered their last child away from a health facility or did not receive a health check before being discharged from a health facility, and who received a health check later, DELPPCHKALOC_01 (M69_1) reports where the respondent's postpartum health check took place. Response categories vary across samples. See Comparability.
Comparability
Along with universe differences, the response categories for DELPPCHKALOC_01 vary across samples.
The harmonized coding categories in the IPUMS-DHS variable DELPPCHKALOC_01 were constructed to reflect the major and minor categories in the original DHS variable (M69_1). The major categories are:
- 1000: Home
- 2000: Public sector facilities
- 3000: Private medical sector facilities
- 4000: Non-governmental organizations (NGOs)
- 5000: Religious/mission facilities
The second, third, and fourth digits of DELPPCHKALOC_01's codes distinguish between specific locations and provide detail present in only some samples.
Comparability - Standard DHS
DELPPCHKALOC_01 (M69_1) is included in Phase V and VII of the standard DHS questionnaire.
