Description

Definition

HEMOTEST (HW55) indicates whether the person's hemoglobin level was tested from a blood draw by DHS personnel or, if not, why the person's hemoglobin level was not measured. All "no" responses have a common first digit of "2," while the second digit reveals the reason (e.g., consent refused versus technical problem).
