Infant Health Outcomes

Understanding infant health complications is crucial for reducing infant mortality and enhancing lifelong health outcomes. Low birth weight (LBW), premature births, and Neonatal Intensive Care Unit (NICU) admissions are key indicators of both early childhood and long-term health. This data, covering all live births in the Georgia All-Payer Claims Database (GA APCD) from 2018 to 2022, focuses on infants experiencing at least one of these conditions.
