Maternity Care

via the Centers for Medicare & Medicaid Services (CMS):

User-friendly tool helps identify hospitals and health systems committed to providing high-quality maternity care

Today, the Centers for Medicare & Medicaid Services (CMS) will begin displaying the ‘Birthing-Friendly’ designation icon on CMS’s Care Compare online tool. CMS created the new designation to identify hospitals and health systems that participate in a statewide or national perinatal quality improvement collaborative program and that implement evidence-based care to improve maternal health.
