They observed that stunting and teenage pregnancy concentrated among the poor, whereas incidences of diarrhea and respiratory infections were similar regardless of socioeconomic status.
Child immunization and family planning services were equitably distributed across socioeconomic groups. A slight but negligible gap was observed between the poor and the rich in terms of coverage of prenatal care and child delivery by skilled personnel. Overall, the coverage of prenatal care and child delivery services was >95%, and the urban-rural gap for several health and health care indicators was quite
small. This finding indicates that achievements made during the earlier two decades have been sustained.
