In Indonesia, protecting the right to health services is part of the implementation of health efforts as regulated by Law Number 17 of 2023 concerning Health. Therefore, maternal health services have become an inseparable part of the state's guarantee of the right to health. Even though this law is still relatively new, this and existing legal products do not yet regulate the rights to health services for birthing mothers specifically and comprehensively.
