Description

Definition
For young children with a fever or cough in the past 2 weeks, FEVTRZW4 indicates, in response to an open-ended question, whether the child received treatment at a public district hospital for this illness. This response category is country-specific to Zimbabwe.

Some samples in the "FEVTR" 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.

FEVTRZW4 is combined with FEVTRZW1 (public central hospital), FEVTRZW2 (public provincial hospital), and FEVTRZW5 (public rural hospital) in FEVTRPUBHOS (all public hospitals) for the 2010 Zimbabwe sample. IPUMS-DHS users interested in using FEVTRZW4 are encouraged to review FEVTRPUBHOS for a more comprehensive response category.

In previous Zimbabwe surveys, district hospital is combined with rural hospital to form one response category. This category is preserved in the country-specific variable FEVTRZW3.
