Chapter 7
Neonatal Levels of Care
Subchapter 1 Neonatal Program Requirements
The neonatal levels of care establish a tiered framework—Level I through Level
IV—to match facility resources, clinical expertise, and support services with the
acuity of mothers and their newborns. Each ascending level builds on the
previous one by defining progressively advanced requirements for infrastructure,
staffing, specialized services, and quality‐improvement activities, ensuring that
every infant receives risk-appropriate, evidence-based care at the right place and
time.
