momScore: See where your state ranks

Posted on May 8th 2008 5:00PM by Maggie Vink
Revolution Health has a new interactive tool, momScore, that ranks states based on the accessibility and quality of maternal health care. To determine the score, a team of health experts compared state-to-state criteria including:

  • Access to prenatal care
  • Maternal mortality
  • Risk of pregnancy complications
  • Childcare availability per capita
  • Infant mortality
  • Air quality
  • Violent crime rate
  • Access to health insurance
  • Affordability of children's health insurance
  • Mandatory paid leave policy
You can check your state's score overall or by specific health topic. My state ranked roughly in the middle, which was what I expected to see. Where does your state rank?
