No, the code provided is correct. The first line is if the day of birth was reported (hw16 <= 31), and the second line is used if the day of birth was not reported, i.e. is "don't know" (98) or missing (99), in which case the value of 15 is used as the midpoint of the month.

gen bdate = mdy(b1, hw16, b2) if hw16 <= 31
replace bdate = mdy(b1, 15, b2) if hw16 > 31
