Description

Definition

For children whose mothers received antenatal care, ANCPUBHOS (M57E) indicates whether the mothers received care at a public hospital.

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 ANCPUBHOS, while preserving the separate responses in country-specific variables.

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