Nearby hospitals: maternity outcomes
A comparable Leapfrog measure is the low-risk, first-birth cesarean rate. Lower is generally preferable for this specific measure, but does not determine the best hospital for every pregnancy.
The Brooklyn Hospital Center: 32.6% low-risk cesarean; 3.3% episiotomy; 1,106 live births. Leapfrog hospital report.
NYC Health + Hospitals/Kings County: 30.9% low-risk cesarean; 4.2% episiotomy; 1,409 live births. Leapfrog hospital report.
Published Leapfrog hospital-level maternity measures; not individual midwife outcomes. Reporting periods and patient mix may differ.
Mabel Estimates are scenario-based, not personalized benefits calculations. Bronze, Silver, Gold and Platinum tiers describe broad cost-sharing levels, not fixed maternity prices. Individual coverage and clinical credentials should be confirmed directly before booking.
