Following is a response from DHS Senior Research Associate, Shireen Assaf:


The client weight is conditional on the facility. All the clients from the same facility have the same weight. However, I would still set up the svyset as you have.
For your second question, I believe that it is not theoretically possible to obtain the ICC. However, as this is not a DHS question, perhaps posting it in the Stata user forum would provide you with some other recommendations.
