Hello,

I am trying to reproduce table 11.20 in both NFHS-4 and NFHS-5 reports. I am interested in measuring gendered differences in access to healthcare and am using the variable for Visits to a health facility or camp in the past 3 months. (S368 in Individual Women's Recodes and SM320 in Male Recode)

I am unable to reproduce the estimates shown in column 2 of the table - Percentage who visited a health facility or camp in the past 3 months for Women.

I am able to reproduce approximately the same estimates in column 1 - Percentage of women with any contact with a health worker (using S359 and S361), and column 3 - Percentage who visited a health facility or camp in the past 3 months for Men (SM320).

I am weighting my estimates using the individual's sample weight (V005 and MV005).

Can you help me with the code to reproduce these estimates?

Moreover, are there other variables you would suggest that could capture gendered differences in access to healthcare, and different types of facilities?

Thank you,
Aryan
