Abstract: This study examines the fulfillment of pregnant women's rights to antenatal care (ANC) services in Central Sulawesi, Indonesia, based on standards set by the Indonesian Ministry of Health Regulation Number 21 of 2021. It addresses the quantity and quality of ANC examinations provided, focusing on the government?s responsibility in meeting these healthcare standards. Using a normative legal research approach, the study finds high compliance with mandated ANC services, although laboratory examination coverage remains low due to limited accessibility and awareness among pregnant women. The findings highlight areas for improvement in maternal health services and underline the importance of comprehensive ANC access.
