Benchmarking

The Benchmarks page shows how your practice compares to the de-identified registry — no PHI, no BAA. The comparison is computed from HIPAA Safe Harbor de-identified data, so it never exposes patient information and needs no business associate agreement. As elsewhere in analytics, only completed births count.

You’ll find it under Stats → Benchmarks, alongside the Explorer and Birth count views.

Until your practice has any courses of care recorded, the page shows “No benchmarks yet” and points you at where to add or import births.

Your benchmarks

Once you have records, the page compares Your practice against the Registry aggregate (all practices):

• Headline indicators — your key rates beside the registry aggregate, in a chart and a table (Indicator, Your practice, Aggregate).
• Mode of birth mix — your birth-mode breakdown against the aggregate.

Because the numbers are computed from de-identified data, small samples are noisy — read the n alongside each rate.

Whose births

Like the rest of Stats, Benchmarks carries a Whose births scope so you can measure a slice of your practice against the same aggregate — My births, a named provider, or the whole practice. The scope only ever narrows within your own practice; the registry aggregate stays the fixed comparison. A Viewer, who attends no births, sees the practice scope only.

Advanced analytics

An Advanced analytics panel sits below your benchmarks. It is the paid Stats depth — trends over time, risk-adjusted and sub-cohort breakdowns. On a plan that doesn’t include it, the panel is marked Paid with an Upgrade to unlock button; when your plan includes it, the same panel shows Included in your plan.

Accreditation reports and research datasets are generated elsewhere — on Birth Registry → Reports — so the page links you there rather than gating them here:

• Accreditation-report automation — CABC Indicator & ACNM Benchmarking Project submissions, generated for you. The ACNM Benchmarking Project submission window runs January 1 – March 31; generate and file yours on Reports, and it is kept in your Filed reports history.
• Research & cohort exports — MANA-shaped de-identified datasets for studies and registries.

My stats

Provider-level stats (My stats) are available to participating practices — the provider-stats surface sits behind the partner-EHR integration beta and the registry provider-stats entitlement, so it appears only for practices enrolled in that program.
