Description

Definition
For household members under age 5, HEMOTESTHHLT5 (HC55) indicates whether their hemoglobin level was tested from a blood draw by DHS personnel or, if not, why not. All "no" responses have a common first digit of "2," while the second digit reveals the reason (e.g., consent refused versus technical problem).
