Question post text

Probe to elicit a response for a typical month; if respondent is not able to provide you with that estimate, and then probe for the number of referrals in a typical year. Specify that this is a full calendar year (Jan-Dec). Please reiterate to the respondent that the number is for spontaneous and induced abortion patients, and should take into consideration all wards of the facility.
