* The best prenatal health care in Indonesia can be found in Jakarta. Many Indonesian women still have home births with midwives (especially in rural areas), but many others use hospitals. The best hospitals in Jakarta are private hospitals and international clinics. Unfortunately, these private facilities are more expensive, so they are not accessible to many women and families. According to AngloInfo, "When choosing a hospital in an urban area, it is suggested to clarify whether emergency facilities such as neo-natal intensive care are available, if the father is allowed to be present at the birth, and which procedures the hospital uses for births."<ref>[https://www.angloinfo.com/how-to/indonesia/healthcare/pregnancy-birth/the-birth Indonesia - The Birth]</ref> | |||
