Health facility delivery service utilization is very low in pastoralist regions of Ethiopia, and ANC follow-up, distance from the health facility, women's educational status, and information regarding maternal health service fees were identified as significant associated factors. Consequently, strengthening ANC services, introducing free health services to the community, and constructing health facilities for the nearby residents are recommended to improve the practice.
