Dear user,

It appears that the code used to create this table assigned facility categories to incorrect designations. We are following up internally. Meanwhile, please try this code using the KR file:

keep if v024==33
gen swt = sv005/1000000
numlabel, add

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") if bidx ==1, gen(facdel)

recode facdel (4 5 6 = 2 "Home") (1 2 3 = 1 "Facility") (7 = 3 "Other") if bidx==1, gen(facdel2)

tab facdel if bidx==1 [iw=swt]
tab facdel2 if bidx==1 [iw=swt]

Please also be aware of several publicly available resources we have, including tips on matching tables: https://blog.dhsprogram.com/final-report-tables/ , The DHS Guide to Statistics: https://dhsprogram.com/publications/publication-dhsg1-dhs-qu estionnaires-and-manuals.cfm , and Stata programs for most chapters on GitHub: https://github.com/DHSProgram/DHS-Indicators-Stata.

Thank you,

Dear Dr. Tomar,

My sincerest apologies- it appears there is not an error in the code as I had originally thought. These reports differ from the typical DHS table structure and I missed the denominator specification. The denominator that we in fact need to match is all births. Therefore, please use the above code but take out "bidx==1" in all instances and try it again.

Thank you,
Lindsay
