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.
Comparability — Bangladesh [top]
In the 2007, 2011, and 2014 Bangladesh surveys, there are separate categories for "NGO static clinic," "NGO satellite clinic," and "other NGO." Because ANCNGO_01 focuses on all NGOs, these separate responses are consolidated in this variable to create a more comprehensive response category. For researchers interested in preserving the country-specific categories:
- NGO static clinic is listed as ANCBD8_01 in IPUMS-DHS
- NGO satellite clinic is listed as ANCBD9_01 in IPUMS-DHS
- Other NGO is listed as ANCBD10_01 in IPUMS-DHS
In the 2018 Bangladesh survey, under the "NGO sector" header, there are two separate categories for "NGO static clinic" and "NGO satellite clinic." Because ANCNGO_01 focuses on all NGOs, these separate responses are consolidated in this variable to create a more comprehensive response category. For researchers interested in preserving the country-specific categories:
Comparability — Egypt [top]
In the 2005, 2008, and 2014 Egypt surveys, under the "Nongovernmental" header, there are separate categories for "CSI [Clinical Services Improvement] Project" and "other NGO." Because ANCNGO_01 focuses on all NGOs, these responses are consolidated in this variable to create a more comprehensive response category. For researchers interested in preserving the country-specific categories:
Comparability — Eswatini (Swaziland) [top]
In the 2006 Swaziland/Eswatini survey, there are separate categories for different NGO sources. Because ANCNGO_01 focuses on all NGOs, these separate responses are consolidated in this variable to create a more comprehensive response category. For researchers interested in preserving the country-specific categories:
Comparability — Ethiopia [top]
In the 2016 and 2019 Ethiopia surveys, there are separate categories for "NGO health facility" and "other NGO health facility." Because ANCNGO focuses on all NGOs, these separate responses are consolidated in this variable to create a more comprehensive response category. For researchers interested in preserving the country-specific categories:
Comparability — Gambia [top]
In the 2012 Gambia survey, there are separate categories for "NGO hospital/clinic" and "other NGO medical sector." Because ANCNGO focuses on all NGOs, these separate responses are consolidated in this variable to create a more comprehensive response category. For researchers interested in preserving the country-specific categories:
Comparability — Jordan [top]
In the 2017 Jordan survey, there are separate categories for "UNRWA health center" and "UNHCR/other NGO." Because ANCNGO_01 focuses on all NGOs, these separate responses are consolidated in this variable to create a more comprehensive response category. For researchers interested in preserving the country-specific categories:
Comparability — Nepal [top]
In the 2006, 2011, and 2016 Nepal surveys, there are separate categories for different NGO sources. Because ANCNGO_01 focuses on all NGOs, these separate responses are consolidated in this variable to create a more comprehensive response category. For researchers interested in preserving the country-specific categories:
- UMN(/Red Cross hospital) is listed as ANCNP6_01 in IPUMS-DHS (available for Nepal 2006 and 2011)
- FPAN (Family Planning Association of Nepal) is listed as ANCNP7_01 in IPUMS-DHS (available for Nepal 2011 and 2016)
- Marie Stopes is listed as ANCNP8_01 in IPUMS-DHS (available for Nepal 2011 and 2016)
- ADRA (Adventist Development and Relief Agency) is listed as ANCNP9_01 in IPUMS-DHS (available for Nepal 2011)
- Other NGO is listed as ANCNP10_01 in IPUMS-DHS (available for Nepal 2006, 2011, and 2016)
