ACNM Benchmarking Project Results
The ACNM Benchmarking Project is vital to the future of midwifery care, quality, and access in the United States as a professional self-maintenance strategy and as a method of quality assurance, allowing participating practices to compare themselves to practices that are similar in size and environment.
Participation in the Benchmarking survey helps midwives speak authoritatively to insurers and consultants about which clinical practices need to be encouraged or discouraged to produce excellent outcomes. Benchmarking also acts as tangible proof of the improved outcomes and lower costs of midwifery care.
Although the Benchmarking Survey closes in April, the results are not available until later in the year. This allows time for extensive data cleaning and data analysis. The national office generates an individual report for each participating practice, which is viewable online and accessed by a link that is sent to each participating practice via e-mail. Best practices are selected and practices notified before the results are made available to the membership.
