33 Source: Massachusetts Department of Public Health, Bureau of Health Information, Statistics, Research, and Evaluation 33 Summary l Most Massachusetts perinatal health indicators are better than those of the US l The teen birth rate is at an all time low l Smoking during pregnancy is at an all time low l Breastfeeding and Adequate Prenatal care reached record highs l One-third of all births are to non-white mothers l Cesarean delivery rate remains stable: one-third of all births are delivered by Cesarean section

34 Source: Massachusetts Department of Public Health, Bureau of Health Information, Statistics, Research, and Evaluation 34 The infant mortality rate (IMR) for Blacks is more than twice as high as the IMR for Whites The Hispanic teen birth rate is almost 5 times that of Whites Less educated mothers have poorer birth indicators than more educated mothers Mothers with their prenatal care paid through Medicaid/MassHealth were almost 6 times more likely to report smoking during pregnancy than those with their prenatal care paid by private sources Disparities Persist by Race, Ethnicity Geography, and SES
