I'm not sure where i saw this but someone wrote that joint commission had revamped their breastfeeding core measures related to exclusive breastfeeding - something related to mothers preference although i cannot find this information anywhere.
Has anyone else heard about this change and if so you can direct me to a link. I am interested in seeing what the change is. I am hoping that they have decided not to count mothers who chose to formula feed in their total number of infants.
