| ^ | APNCU: Adequacy of Prenatal Care Utilization Index. |
| In 2015, SPARCS transitioned from ICD-9-CM to ICD-10-CM diagnosis codes. These two are not comparable, so ED and hospitalization data for 2016-and-forward should not be compared with earlier data. | |
| The 2018 population estimates are also used to calculate rates for 2019 and 2020. Later years are from the most recent Vintage estimates. |
