Fed Exclusively Breast Milk

Measure Definition

Measure Definition

Infants who were fed only breast milk (i.e., no formula or water) since birth. Based on live born infants, excluding infants who were admitted to the Neonatal Intensive Care Unit (NICU) or transferred to or from another hospital. This describes what the infant was fed between birth and discharge from the hospital (or day 5 of life for infants hospitalized more than 5 days).

The "value" for a particular measure includes the performance designation and the corresponding score. In certain cases, facilities may display the same score for the same measure, but differ in their performance designation due to a difference in the number of patients. Generally, facilities with fewer patients are less likely to be ranked as low or high performers.
