Definition
For women who gave birth in the last 5 years and who received antenatal care during their most recent pregnancy, ANCBD7_01 indicates whether, in response to an open-ended question, they reported receiving care from a private medical college hospital. This response category is country-specific to Bangladesh.
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 while preserving the separate responses in country-specific variables.
ANCBD7_01 is combined with ANCBD6_01 (private hospital/clinic) in ANCPRIVHOS_01 (all private hospitals and clinics) for the 2011 Bangladesh samples. IPUMS-DHS users interested in using ANCBD7_01 are encouraged to review ANCPRIVHOS_01 for a more comprehensive response category.
