The National Center for Health Statistics (NCHS) will release the Final 2018 Mortality File and accompanying reports on Thursday, January 30, 2020. In addition to reports highlighting life expectancy and drug overdose, NCHS will release new reports on maternal mortality measurement in the United States, along with detailed data files for researchers. With the release of these data and reports, NCHS is resuming publication of an official Maternal Mortality Rate for the first time since 2007.
