Description

Definition
For children whose mothers received antenatal care, ANCPUBHC (M57F) indicates whether the mothers received care at a public health center.

Some samples in the "ANC" series include categories that can be consolidated into a single response. IPUMS-DHS uses supplemental programming to combine these responses in a standard variable, such as ANCPUBHC, while preserving the separate responses in country-specific variables.

For example, a given sample might include multiple categories for different types of public health centers that could be combined to create a more comprehensive response category. See Comparability for more information on the specific categories combined in ANCPUBHC.
