Definition
The number of deaths among Medicaid-enrolled infants under 1 year, per 1,000 live births enrolled in Medicaid; the number of deaths among infants under 1 year not enrolled in Medicaid, per 1,000 live births not enrolled in Medicaid. This is a 5-year moving average.
Alaska links vital records to Medicaid/CHIP enrollment data to determine if the mother was enrolled during the year of the birth or previous year OR if the infant was enrolled in Medicaid during their birth year.

Notes
Five years of data were combined to minimize the unreliability of measurement due to the small number of actual events. The reported values are a moving average across five years.
