This question is only asked to women who received antenatal care for their last pregnancy in the last five years. It is very important that a woman see a qualified health care professional during her pregnancy. The purpose of this question is to determine if the person who the woman saw most of the time during her pregnancy was medically qualified. If the respondent reports having seen more than one type of health care provider, probe for the type of provider most often seen. If the respondent is unsure, prompt by reading out the categories. (NOTE: Coding categories may need to be developed locally and revised based on the pretest, however the main categories must be maintained.)
