Initiative A: Reducing Maternal Mortality for a High-Risk Communities

Goal: Reduce the maternal mortality rate by 25% over the next five years in three high-risk communities.

Preliminary data that the mortality rate for Black women in the facilities catchment area is twice that of other racial groups. Referral data shows fewer referrals to perinatologist. Focus groups with patients have raised several reasons for this including health insurance coverage and poor patient-provider communication.
