The Obstetrics Initiative (OBI) leads statewide collaboration across 70+ hospitals to optimize maternity care experiences, health outcomes, and equity for Michigan families. By collecting clinically-credible data, comparing performance among peers, sharing best practices, and implementing changes in clinical behavior, they will achieve more efficient utilization of healthcare resources, improve care delivery in our own hospitals, and enhance the quality, value, outcomes, and equity of treatment provided to birthing individuals in Michigan.
