Pneumonia remains a serious problem as it is one of major causes in under-five children’s morbidity and mortality worldwide; however, it gets little concern, including in Indonesia. In Purworejo District, the finding coverage of this disease in community health centers is still low (3.7%), due to the fact that it may be caused by inappropriate care seeking behavior.

This was an observational study with cross sectional design. The study was conducted in community health centers and hospital in Purworejo District.
