Dear Dr. Tom,

Many thanks for your reply. DHS in Sri Lanka has done in 2016 and here is the link for the report.

http://www.statistics.gov.lk/page.asp?page=Health

I have received the the data from the Department of Census in Sri Lanka. So it seems that most of the respondents are limited to 1, so the HH level is not meaningful to use.
When I use cluster as my PSU, my ICC shows only 7% in null model and it further decreases when adding covariates.Does this still valid to report in a DHS.
Kindly let me know your opinion on this.

Thanks
