Question post text

Probe to elicit a response for a typical month; if respondent is not able to provide you with that estimate, then probe for the number of outpatients in a typical year. Specify that this is a full calendar year (i.e. from January to December). Please reiterate to the respondent that the number is both spontaneous and induced abortion patients and should take into consideration all wards of the facility. If a range is given, probe further for an average number
