Description
For women who gave birth in the last three years, ANCAREIA7_ALL indicates whether, in response to an open-ended question, they reported that a home health worker gave antenatal care for a birth. This response category is country-specific to India.
ANCAREIA7_ALL consists of a set of up to six separate variables, covering the most recent birth (ANCAREIA7_01) up to the sixth-most-recent birth (i.e., ANCAREIA7_02, ANCAREIA7_03, ANCAREIA7_04, ANCAREIA7_05, and ANCAREIA7_06) during the reference period prior to the survey. If ANCAREIA7_ALL is included in a data extract, all these separate variables are included in a researcher's data file.
