Description

Definition
DELCOST_ALL is a 5-digit numeric variable that how much the respondent paid for the child's delivery.

DELCOST_ALL consists of a set of up to six separate variables, covering the most recent birth (DELCOST_01) up to the sixth-most-recent birth (i.e., DELCOST_02, DELCOST_03, DELCOST_04, DELCOST_05, and DELCOST_06) during the reference period prior to the survey. If DELCOST_ALL is included in a data extract, all these separate variables are included in a researcher's data file.
