Dear Sir,
Greetings!!
I was planning to estimate OOPE for delivery care at the national and state level. Following steps, I have followed to estimate the same. However, the results are not matching with the figure given in the report (Table 8.20).
step 1: SELECT IF midx=1 & facility=1 (institutional delivery). [N=149770: matching with the report]
Step 2: Selected valid cases for the analysis.
compute valid=0.
if (s448aa=99998 & s448ba =99998 & s448bb=99998 & s448bc=99998 & s448bd=99998 & s449=99998) valid=1. If valid=0, considered for the analysis.
Step 3: computed delivery cost using the following syntax.
recode s448aa s448ba s448bb s448bc s448bd s449 (99998=0).
recode s448aa s448ba s448bb s448bc s448bd s449 (sysmis=0).
compute deliverycost= (s448aa+ s448ba+ s448bb+ s448bc+ s448bd+ s449).
Step 4: Estimated the mean OOPE
deliverycost
valid Mean N Std. Deviation
.00 8430.3232 144942 19334.84727
1.00 .0000 4828 .00000
Total 8158.5767 149770 19078.86061
for the valid cases (N=144942), the mean OOPE is: Rs 8430.
However, in Table 8.20 of India report, the mean OOPE is Rs. 7938.
Kindly advised how to match this figure.
Thank you and look forward to your kind response.
Warm regards,
