Description
For women who gave birth in the last five years and who received antenatal care during their most recent pregnancy, ANCPRIVMIS_01 indicates whether, in response to an open-ended question, they reported receiving care at a faith-based health facility.
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 ANCPRIVMIS_01, while preserving the separate responses in country-specific variables.
Comparability
In addition to universe differences, ANCPRIVMIS_01 varies slightly in question wording across samples, as different types of facilities are mentioned, including hospitals, health centers, clinics, and dispensaries. However, these places are consistently labeled as "mission" or "religious" facilities and are organized under a "Private Medical Sector" header.
ANCPRIVMIS_01 is ultimately concerned with whether any faith-based health facility was reported, not about the specific type of facility reported. In some cases, multiple categories were consolidated to form a single, more comprehensive response. Countries of particular interest are noted below.
Because the wording of responses varies across samples, 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 ANCPRIVMIS_01 to increase comparability across samples.
