Description

Definition
VACHEPBNO reports the number of hepatitis B injections the child ever received. Information is drawn from the mother's response to a direct question about the number of times the child received a hepatitis B injection, rather than from the immunization card or from other questions about specific hepatitis B doses and timing.
