The Arizona Maternal Mortality Review Committee (MMRC) first convened in 2011 after being established by Senate Bill 1121. The committee has 30 active members and meets monthly. Arizona statue requires that the MMRC review all maternal deaths occuring in Arizona (regardless of pregnancy duration or manner of death). Reviews include ages 10-60, Arizona resident deaths occuring outside of the state, and non-resident deaths occuring in Arizona. The MMRC completed reviews of 2017 deaths in late 2020. Arizona had 81,664 live births in 2017, with 59 pregnancy-associated deaths (13 of which were pregnancy-related).
