Description
For women who gave birth in the last five years and who received antenatal care during their most recent pregnancy, ANCNGO_01 indicates whether, in response to an open-ended question, they reported receiving care at a non-governmental organization (NGO).
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 ANCNGO_01, while preserving the separate responses in country-specific variables.
Comparability
In addition to universe differences, ANCNGO_01 varies slightly in question wording across samples, as different types of NGOs are mentioned. ANCNGO_01 is ultimately concerned with whether any NGO was reported, not about the specific type of NGO reported. Additionally, in some cases, multiple categories were consolidated to form a single, more comprehensive response. Countries of particular interest are noted below.
Because question wording varies for ANCNGO_01, IPUMS-DHS users are encouraged to review the Survey Text tab for samples of interest.
Comparability - Standard DHS
An open-ended question on where antenatal care was sought is included in Phase V forward of the standard DHS questionnaire.
Although responses in this variable are country-specific and not included in the standard DHS modules, they are integrated in ANCNGO_01 to increase comparability across samples.
