The California Perinatal Quality Care Collaborative (CPQCC) is a group of public and private, California leaders in healthcare, committed to improving care and outcomes for the State’s pregnant mothers and newborns.
The Collaborative includes 128 member hospitals, representing over 90% of all neonates cared for in California NICUs.
Our major goal is the development of a Collaborative Network of public and private, Obstetric and Neonatal providers, insurers, public health professionals and business groups to support a system for benchmarking and performance improvement activities for perinatal care throughout California.
