Ohio
Ohio’s Data Warehouse allows you to query the database for information. You can get data from two sources: (1) vital statistics (i.e. birth certificate) or (2) hospital discharge data. The birth certificate data (e.g. method of delivery) can be broken down by county, but not by hospital. The hospital discharge data does let you get hospital level data on topics like cesareans, but only in absolute numbers – you’ll have to work out rates. Neither system is particularly simple, but they do provide menus that you can work through to identify the data you want to see.
