OBJECTIVE: Describe discrepancies between facilities' self-reported level of neonatal care and Centers for Disease Control and Prevention Levels of Care Assessment Tool(SM) (CDC LOCATe(SM))-assessed level. STUDY DESIGN: CDC LOCATe(SM) data from 765 health facilities in the United States, including 17 states, one territory, one large multi-state hospital system, and one perinatal region within a state, was collected between 2016 and 2021 for this cross-sectional analysis. RESULT: Among 721 facilities that self-reported level of neonatal care, 33.1% had discrepancies between their self-reported level and their LOCATe(SM)-assessed level. Among facilities with discrepancies, 75.3% self-reported a higher level of neonatal care than their LOCATe(SM)-assessed level. The most common elements contributing to discrepancies were limited specialty and subspecialty staffing, such as neonatology or neonatal surgery. CONCLUSION: Results highlight opportunities for jurisdictions to engage with facilities, health systems, and partners about levels of neonatal care, and to collaborate to promote standardized systems of risk-appropriate care.
