Interviewer instructions

Places operated by the government include all establishments operated by all levels of government (federal/ national, provincial/state, and local/district). The word “operated” refers to the fact that the place is run by an organization that the respondent identifies as government, private, church etc. Note that only one category may be selected. If the respondent is undecided, ask them to select the group the provider fits in best. Similarly, if the health care provider visited the respondent at home, the respondent should think about who operates the home visit service.
