The Ministry of Health passed the Linda Mama Health Policy to improve expectant women's access to maternal health services (use of antenatal care (ANC) services and hospital delivery) to reduce illness and death among mothers when pregnant, during childbirth or immediately after delivery.

The women are classified based on whether they used: ANC services, facility delivery and post-natal care. In addition, they are grouped based on their highest level of education: (i) primary school; (ii) secondary school; and (iii) university.
