Dear User,
In the Uganda DHS 2011 woman's questionnaire there is Q1008:
Q1008 Many different factors can prevent women from getting medical advice or treatment for themselves. When you are sick and want to get medical advice or treatment, is each of the following a big problem or not?
c) distance to health facility

This is the only reference I see. That variable is recoded into V467D.

There are no other references for Uganda DHS 2011. If the specific question you are looking for is not in the questionnaire, then it did not get asked and data does not exist for this survey, except for V467D. If there was an additional question regarding distance that was not part of the standard recode variables, it would then become a country-specific variable. However, I checked the questionnaire, and did not find anything additional.
Thanks!
