Introduction
|
|
Low socioeconomic status has previously been shown to be a risk factor for poor birth outcomes.
The percent of births for which the payer for labor and delivery was Medi-Cal and the percent of mothers with no high school degree are used
as indicators of low socioeconomic status.
Medi-Cal is the name of the federal Medicaid program in California.

Definitions
|
|
Medi-Cal Payer
|
|
This refers to any birth record indicating that Medi-Cal or Medicare paid
for labor and delivery. Note that Medi-Cal is the name of the federal Medicaid program in California.
|
|
|
No high school degree
|
|
Prior to 2006, the birth certificate included information on the number of years
of education completed by the mother. IPODR considered a mother who completed 11 or less years of
schooling as having "no high school degree." Starting in 2006, the actual degree information was captured
for the birth certificate, and that information is used in IPODR from that year forward.
