Cayuga Medical Center has been recognized by Excellus BlueCross BlueShield with a Blue Distinction for Maternity Care, a designation under the Blue Distinction® Specialty Care Program.
The Blue Distinction Specialty Care Program is given to organizations that demonstrate quality care, treatment expertise, and better overall patient results in certain specialties. Cayuga Medical Center’s Blue Distinction for Maternity Care demonstrates the expertise and commitment to quality care for vaginal and cesarean section deliveries.
“I am deeply humbled by the expertise, dedication, and compassion demonstrated by our entire team,” says Brenda Lange, MSN, RN, Director of Maternal Child Health, Cayuga Medical Center. “Their constant commitment to going above and beyond ensures that our patients receive the highest standard of safe, quality care.”
