Introduction: Infant mortality rate (IMR) is one of the indicator of the success for maternal and child health programs. Infant mortality rates affected by biological, environmental, socioeconomic factors and quality of healthcare services. This study aimed to analyze the factors affecting infant mortality rates in the East Java Province using a spatial regression model.
