Description
DELTRANTAXI_ALL indicates whether, in response to an open-ended question, a taxi or another type of paid driver was reported as the means of reaching the health facility for the child's delivery.
DELTRANTAXI_ALL consists of a set of up to six separate variables, covering the most recent birth (DELTRANTAXI_01) up to the sixth-most-recent birth (i.e., DELTRANTAXI_02, DELTRANTAXI_03, DELTRANTAXI_04, DELTRANTAXI_05, and DELTRANTAXI_06) during the reference period prior to the survey. If DELTRANTAXI_ALL is included in a data extract, all these separate variables are included in a researcher's data file.
