註釋Following an extensive participatory process, we co-designed a study to assess the quality of perinatal services in the United States as experienced by two national cohorts of understudied health service users: childbearing communities of color and those who planned community births. We received responses from 2700 people from all 50 United States to a survey (2016-2017) on experience of childbearing care. Participants were recruited by community partners who provided clinical or community health services via snowball sampling, social networking, and referrals from parents and consumer advocacy groups in various states. Two thirds of responses came from New York State, and 8% from California. Just over half of participants were between the ages of 31 and 39 years at the time of their most recent birth. Most (90%) were born in the US and spoke English at home. Within those respondents, 15% self-identified as Black, 10% as Hispanic, 2% as Indigenous, 4% as Asian, 2% as multiracial, and 67% as White. The majority (80%) had completed postsecondary education and obtained an associate or college degree. Half of respondents planned a community birth and half planned to give birth in a hospital. Half paid for maternity care via private insurance, and 14% used Medicaid/Children's Health Insurance Program (CHIP).
