Description

For sample adults in 2007 who had seen a practitioner for herbal medicines during the past 12 months (HERPRACYR), HERPRACNO reports how many times the respondent had seen such a practitioner during the past year.

Response categories for HERPRACNO report the number of visits to a practitioner in grouped intervals, ranging from "Only one time" to "More than 20 times."
