Description

Definition
ATPRIVHOS (V784K) indicates whether, in response to an open-ended question, the woman reported a private hospital, clinic, or doctor as a source for testing for the AIDS virus.

Some samples in the "AT" 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. See Comparability for more information on the specific categories combined in this variable.
