Description

For women who gave birth in the last five years, ANCARETZ3_ALL indicates whether, in response to an open-ended question, they reported that a Maternal and Child health aide gave antenatal care for a birth. This response category is country-specific to Tanzania.

ANCARETZ3_ALL consists of a set of up to six separate variables, covering the most recent birth (ANCARETZ3_01) up to the sixth-most-recent birth (i.e., ANCARETZ3_02, ANCARETZ3_03, ANCARETZ3_04, ANCARETZ3_05, and ANCARETZ3_06) during the reference period prior to the survey. If ANCARETZ3_ALL is included in a data extract, all these separate variables are included in a researcher's data file.
