b. The rate of maternal mortality in Georgia for 2018 is 27.7 per 100,000 live births compared to a national rate of 17.4 . Our goal is to aid in decreasing the rate through active implementation of evidence-based bundles aimed at improving care coordination and providing equitable maternity care to all birthing populations. These evidence-based approaches will be implemented through a collaboration between all “touch points” the birthing populations are likely to come across.
