Definition

Percentage of births to women who did not receive prenatal care in the first trimester of the pregnancy.

Data Source

Maryland Department of Health and Mental Hygiene

Notes

The methodology for collecting prenatal care information during pregnancy was changed in the 2010 revision of the Maryland birth certificate. As a result, prenatal care data collected from 2010 onward is not comparable to data collected in earlier years.
