Assessment of availability of indicators over dimensions and domains of the continuum of care for maternal health in South Africa. The dimensions of the continuum of care are defined according to the adequacy construct developed in a previous study [5]. The level of care and intervention packages contain indicators found in Fig. 2 and are based on the continuum of care framework in Fig. 1. We assign “partial” (orange) measurement if indicators are available but there are measurement gaps identified. When assigned “no” (red) when no indicators or proxies were identified from the data sources. And we assigned “yes” (green) if, according to literature and existing guidelines, the indicators available to measure the intervention package are considered adequate
