Cayuga Medical Center has been recognized by Excellus BlueCross BlueShield with a Blue Distinction for Maternity Care.
The Blue Distinction Specialty Care Program marks organizations that demonstrate quality care, treatment expertise and better overall patient results in certain specialties, Cayuga Medical states in a release. Cayuga Medical’s Blue distinction came for its vaginal and cesarean section deliveries.
“I am deeply humbled by the expertise, dedication, and compassion demonstrated by our entire team,” said Brenda Lange, director of maternal child health. “Their constant commitment to going above and beyond ensures that our patients receive the highest standard of safe, quality care.”
Organizations with the Blue Distinction for Maternal Care have fewer episiotomies, fewer elective deliveries and fewer cesarean births.
