Description
HCMPUBHOS (V762AA) indicates whether the woman reported a "government hospital" as a source for male condoms.
Some samples in the "HCM" series include categories that can be consolidated into a single response. IPUMS-DHS uses supplemental programming to combine these responses in a standard variable while preserving the separate responses in country-specific variables.
For example, a given sample might include multiple categories for different types of public hospitals that could be combined to create a more comprehensive response category. See Comparability for more information on the specific categories combined in HCMPUBHOS.

Comparability
Along with universe differences, HCMPUBHOS (V762AA) has some variation in question wording that broadly applies to the "source for male condom" series. For discussion of question wording in this variable series, see the comparability section of HCMDK.
Most commonly, this response category is organized under the "Public Sector" header and is worded as "government hospital." However, some countries diverge from this standard convention, and, in some cases, multiple categories were consolidated in HCMPUBHOS to form a single, more comprehensive response. Countries of particular interest are noted below.
Comparability - Standard DHS
HCMPUBHOS (V762AA) first appears in phase IV of the Standard DHS questionnaire. It is included and consistent in all subsequent phases of the standard DHS questionnaire. Samples from Phase III are also included in this variable. For discussion of differences between phases in this variable series, see the Comparability - Standard DHS tab of HCMDK.
Comparability — Chad [top]
In the 1996, 2004, and 2014 Chad surveys, there are separate categories for "public hospital/maternity" and "military/garrison hospital." Because HCMPUBHOS focuses on all public hospitals, these responses are consolidated in this variable to create a more comprehensive response category. For researchers interested in preserving these country-specific categories:
Comparability — Ghana [top]
The Ghana 2003 and 2008 surveys word this response category as "Govt. Hospital/Polyclinic."
Comparability — India [top]
The India 2005 survey words this response category as "Govt./Municipal Hospital."
Comparability — Jordan [top]
In the 2002, 2007, 2012, and 2017 Jordan surveys, there are separate categories for "government hospital" and "university hospital." Because HCMPUBHOS focuses on all public hospitals, these responses are consolidated in this variable to create a more comprehensive response category. For researchers interested in preserving these country-specific categories:
Comparability — Madagascar [top]
In the 2008 Madagascar survey, there are separate categories for "level I government hospital" and "level II government hospital." Because HCMPUBHOS focuses on all public hospitals, these responses are consolidated in this variable to create a more comprehensive response category. For researchers interested in preserving these country-specific categories:
Comparability — Mali [top]
The Mali 2006 survey form lists two response categories for this variable: "National Hospital" and "Regional Hospital." The categories are combined during the original DHS data processing to make a single variable.
In the 2012 and 2018 Mali surveys, "national hospital" and "regional hospital" are again listed but are retained as two separate variables. Because HCMPUBHOS focuses on all public hospitals, these two responses are consolidated in this variable to create a more comprehensive response category. For researchers interested in preserving these country-specific categories:
Comparability — Mozambique [top]
For Mozambique 2003, the response categories of "central hospital," "provincial/general hospital," and "rural hospital," all categorized under the "public sector" header, are combined in a single variable in the original DHS data.
In the Mozambique 1997 and 2011 surveys, there are separate variables for "central hospital," "provincial/general hospital," and "rural hospital." Because HCMPUBHOS focuses on all public hospitals, these responses are consolidated in this variable to create a more comprehensive response category. For researchers interested in preserving these country-specific categories:
Comparability — Nepal [top]
The 2001, 2006, and 2011 Nepal surveys word this response category as "Government hospital/clinic."
Comparability — Niger [top]
The Niger 2012 survey form lists three response categories for this variable: "National Hospital," "Regional Hospital," and "District Hospital." Because HCMPUBHOS focuses on all public hospitals, these responses are consolidated in this variable to create a more comprehensive response category. For researchers interested in preserving these country-specific categories:
Comparability — Rwanda [top]
In the 2010 and 2014 Rwanda surveys, there are separate categories for "referral hospital" and "district hospital." Because HCMPUBHOS focuses on all public hospitals, these two responses are consolidated in this variable to create a more comprehensive response category. For researchers interested in preserving these country-specific categories:
Comparability — Tanzania [top]
In the 2004 and 2010 Tanzania surveys, there are separate categories for "referral hospital," "regional hospital," "and district hospital." Because HCMPUBHOS focuses on all public hospitals, these responses are consolidated in this variable to create a more comprehensive response category. For researchers interested in preserving these country-specific categories:
- Referral hospital is listed as HCMTZ5 in IPUMS-DHS
- Regional hospital is listed as HCMTZ6 in IPUMS-DHS
- District hospital is listed as HCMTZ7 in IPUMS-DHS
In the 1996 and 1999 Tanzania surveys, there are separate categories for "regional hospital" and "district hospital," which are consolidated in HCMPUBHOS and preserved in the country-specific variables HCMTZ6 and HCMTZ7.

The Zimbabwe 2005 and 2010 surveys word this response category as "Government Hospital/Clinic"
