This and other key findings are detailed in the inaugural edition of the company's new monthly report, Syntellis Performance Trends, which analyzes data from more than 1,000 hospitals and 135,000+ physicians from over 10,000 practices and 139 specialty categories.

Last month, the CDC reported that 2020 saw the steepest annual decline in birth volumes since 1973.
