Description

Definition
ATOTHER (V784X) indicates whether the woman reported some other place to be tested for the AIDS virus. The meaning of "other" depends on the specific places for AIDS testing included in a given sample.

Users should be careful to distinguish this variable from ATPUBOTH ("other" under the public medical sector) and ATPRIVOTH ("other" under the private medical sector). ATOTHER includes those "other" categories that do not fit into the public or private medical sector.
