The Arizona Maternal Mortality Review Committee (MMRC) first convened in 2011 after being established by Senate Bill 1121. AZ MMRC received funding from ERASE MM in 2019. Arizona statue requires that the MMRC review all maternal deaths occurring in Arizona (regardless of pregnancy duration or manner of death). Reviews include ages 10-60, Arizona resident deaths occurring outside of the state, and non-resident deaths occurring in Arizona. The AZ MMRC meets monthly and consists of 63 members, of which 35 are designated "Core" members, or those who attend at least 75% of meetings. The AZ MMRC completed reviews of 2020 deaths in 2023. In 2020, Arizona had 76,781 live births. Of the 80 pregnancy-associated cases reviewed, 26 were determined to be pregnancy-related.
