Recommendation 17

17

Accelerate development of the maternal morbidity indicator and provide a clear timetable.

Recommendation
We are concerned that progress on developing a maternal morbidity indicator has been unacceptably slow, despite a Government commitment to do so over two years ago. We recommend the Department work with the National Institute for Health and Care Research to accelerate development and provide a clear timetable in response to this report.
