Hi,
I am using NFHS-5 (2019-21) for India. I tried calculating the number of MOST RECENT LIVE BIRTH (midx==1) not delivered in health facility (TABLE 8.14 in report). Following a reply to another comment at https:// userforum.dhsprogram.com/index.php?t=msg&goto=18260& srch=institutional%20delivery&SQ=c6f7e7a62ac4917bd6ea269 bff619101&, I modified and ran the following command in Stata:
*generating weight
gen wt = v005/1000000
*recoding delivery place
recode m15 (11 = 4 "Own home") (12 = 5 "Other home") (13 = 6 "Parents' home") ///
(21/27 = 1 "Public Sector") (33 = 2 "NGO") (31/32 = 3 "Private") ///
(96 . =7 "Other"), gen(facdel)
*recoding delivery place
recode facdel (4 5 6 = 2 "Home") (1 2 3 = 1 "Facility") (7 = 3 "Other"), gen(facdel2)
*institutional and non-institutional
recode facdel2 (1 = 1 "Institutional") (2 3 =2 "Non-institutional"), gen (facdel3)
*tabulation for most recent live birth
tab facdel3 [iw=wt] if midx==1
*RESULT: Total NON-INSTITUTIONAL BIRTHS did not match with the table [in Table 17016, vs. our result 17395]. It seems that 'OTHER' is taken as 'INSTITUTIONAL' in calculating the report result.
Kindly note that for all live births, the calculated result matches with the report Table 8.13 with this command, however.
Your support is highly appreciated.
Thank you
Regards
Rupon Basumatary
