Description
Definition
For female household members of childbearing age, HWFHEMOTEST (HA55) indicates whether their hemoglobin level was tested from a blood draw by DHS personnel, or, if not, why their hemoglobin level was not measured. All "no" responses have a common first digit of "2," while the second digit reveals the reason (e.g., not present, refused, technical problem).
