Establishes maternity care standards for general hospitals providing maternity care.

This bill requires New Jersey's Department of Health to create safety standards for maternity care in general hospitals licensed to provide such services. Hospitals must follow these standards to maintain their licensure, with the standards focusing on patient safety throughout pregnancy, childbirth, and postpartum care. The standards must incorporate national best practices to reduce adverse outcomes and racial disparities in maternal care, and the Department must update them regularly based on national data.
