Description

Definition
For surviving children with diarrhea in the past 2 weeks, DIATRPUBMOB (H12D) indicates, in response to an open-ended question, whether the child received treatment from a public mobile clinic for this illness.

Users should be careful to distinguish this variable from DIATRPRIVMOB ("fieldworker" under the private medical sector category).
