Notes. Provision of RMC services during labor and delivery was defined as mean percentage score on a total of 10 practices
Variables included in the multivariate are those with p- values of less than 0.25 at bivariate level
*. P-value significant at 0.05 level. OR, adjusted coefficient, 95% CI, and confidence interval. Ref, reference group
