Data from the Amuntai Selatan Community Health Center (UPT Puskesmas) in 2024 showed that ANC coverage for K4 reached 77.43%, still below the Strategic Plan target of 86%. Health service utilization is influenced by several factors, such as knowledge, family support, and parity. Objective: To find out the factors related to ANC visits (K4) in the work area of the South Amuntai Health Center. Method: This study was designed as a cross-sectional analytical observational study. The sampling technique used total sampling with a sample size of 32 participants. Data were analyzed using the Chi-Square test. Result: A total of 11 pregnant women (34.4%) had incomplete ANC (K4) visits. A total of 9 pregnant women (28.1%) had insufficient maternal knowledge. A total of 9 pregnant women (28.1%) did not receive family support. A total of 13 pregnant women (40.6%) had high-risk maternal parity. There was a correlations between maternal knowledge (P-value 0.032), family support (P-value 0.016), and maternal parity (P-value 0.007) with ANC (K4) visits in the working area of the Amuntai Selatan Community Health Center.
