Definition
For children with a fever or cough in the past 2 weeks, FEVTRJO1 indicates, in response to an open-ended question, whether the child received treatment from a government hospital. This response category is country-specific to Jordan.
Some samples in the "FEVTR" series include multiple categories that can be consolidated into a single broad response. IPUMS-DHS uses supplemental programming to combine these responses in a standard variable, while also preserving the separate responses in country-specific variables.
For the 2002, 2007, 2012, and 2017 Jordan samples, FEVTRJO1 is combined with FEVTRJO2 (university hospital) in FEVTRPUBHOS (all public hospitals). IPUMS-DHS users interested in using FEVTRJO1 are encouraged to review FEVTRPUBHOS for a more comprehensive response category.
