Medical certification of cause of death (MCCD) is being issued on every death occasion in every hospital of Indonesia. MCCD consists of two part; part 1 would record with those conditions in the causal link that leading to death and part 2 would fill with other condition that significant in contributing to death. Leading cause of death are defined as Underlying Cause of Death (UCoD). UCoD is located on the Ic section of particular MCCD that have been used by selected hospital for this research. On the other hand, The Indonesian Vital Registration (VR) system relies on information of UCoD. The quality of it might varies considering to a medically qualified doctor who record it. Objctive In this paper, we focused examining the effect of completeness of MCCD to accuracy of UCoD by reggresion ordinal. Methode We taken a total sample from inpatient of death data in January to April 2017, founded 106 MCCDs to analyse and only 58 ones that recorded with UCoD. Result The result suggest that there is a significant effect the completeness of MCCD to accuracy of UCoD. Moreover, We were found : 15 UCoD were stated very accurate, 11 were stated quite accurate and 32 stated not accurate. Conclusion, it needs a commitment from doctors and hospital should be monitoring the completeness of MCCDs and update certain skill to produce high quality of UCoD in order improving VR system.
