Abstract:

Maternal and child health program in Indonesia consists of 5 indicators, namely family participation in family planning, childbirth in health care facilities, complete basic immunization for infants, exclusive breastfeeding for infants and monitoring of growth and development of toddlers. This study aimed to select maternal and child health indicators based on priority using the difficulty-usefulness pyramid, involving 329 families selected using snowball sampling. The difficulty and usefulness of all indicators were measured using an online questionnaire and then analyzed using the difficulty-usefulness pyramid method. The results showed that the range based on the total difficulty-usefulness for each indicator was family participation in family planning = 16.96, childbirth in health care facilities = 18.29, complete basic immunization for infants = 18.22, exclusive breastfeeding for infants = 17.50 and monitoring of growth and development of toddlers = 17.72. The largest range was at the base of the pyramid. It could be concluded that the indicator of maternal and child health that was prioritized in the Healthy Indonesia Program with a Family Approach was childbirth in healthcare facilities.
