Following is a response from DHS staff member, Tom Pullum:

This survey did not include blood tests for measuring hemoglobin concentration. The data were never collected. If they had been collected, they would be provided in the data files. It is up to the survey management in participating countries to decide whether or not to include things like blood tests in a survey. The decision to omit hemoglobin was made by the implementing agency in Indonesia, not by DHS.
