History

The Nebraska Perinatal Quality Improvement Collaborative (NPQIC) was formed by a group of statewide stakeholders in February 2015 with the intent of improving the quality of care in Nebraska for mothers and babies.

In September of 2022, NPQIC became one of 27 perinatal quality collaboratives to be funded by the CDC.
