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

You already asked about Table 11.20, in August. As I said then, this table is based on s361 and s368 in the IR file, and sm320 in the MR file. The questions are about individuals, not households. To construct a household-level version, you would have to allow for the possibility that there are no women, or no men, in the household. There can be more than one women or more than one man. The individual women or men will give different responses. The men are in a 1/6 subsample of households. In the households for which men were not sampled, the household-level classification would depend solely on the responses for women.

I can help if you will be more specific. How about calculating the following?

"Percentage of households with at least one woman who had any contact with a health worker in the past 3 months"
"Percentage of households with at least one woman who visited a health facility or camp in the past 3 months"
"Percentage of households with at least one man who visited a health facility or camp in the past 3 months"

If that's what you want, I can show you how to do it.
