Questions and instructions

Question pretext

I am now going to read you stories about people's experiences with health care services. I wanted you to think about these people's experiences as if they were your own. Once I have finished reading each story, I will ask you to rate what happened in th estory as very good, good, moderate, bad or very bad.

Use in vignettes country specific female/male first names to match sex of the respondent (with exceptions specified in the "Guide to Administration and Question by Question Specifications").

[Thomas] couldn’t see well so he went to the doctor and explained the problem. [Thomas] had time to ask the doctor some questions, which the doctor
answered until [Thomas] understood almost everything.

Literal question

How would you rate his experience of how clearly health care providers
