Case support for the babies you keep, so your nursery can safely care for more of them.
A specialist voice on whether the baby truly needs to go, and clean handoff support when transfer is right.
Meet Millennium Medical Group.
Millennium Medical Group started in 2017 with three neonatologists covering a single hospital NICU. No corporate parent, no roll-up. Physicians who believed babies deserve the best, wherever they're born.
Today MMG is a national practice with more than 100 providers, staffing and supporting nurseries and NICUs across multiple states, around the clock. Their teams don't just cover units. They design them, build them, and have transformed standard wards into full-service NICUs for hospital partners.2
The leadership is clinical to the top: a board-certified neonatologist CEO, a dual-boarded pediatrics and neonatal-perinatal medicine CMO, and a chief nursing officer who has built NICUs from the ground up.2
Their operating philosophy is three words long: continuous, compassionate care. It's why community partners and payers work with them on the unglamorous parts of newborn health, like a Blue Cross and Blue Shield of New Mexico grant program MMG ran to put hospital-grade lactation equipment into a partner NICU.3
Babies deserve the best.

The same practice hospitals hire to build NICUs is the one on your screen at 2 a.m.
Know your level. Use all of it.
Neonatal care runs on a four-level framework.4 Perinatal Link is built for the first two.
Healthy term newborns and stabilization of the unexpected. This is most community hospitals, and the level the tele-specialty market ignored.
Moderately ill newborns, typically 32 weeks and up, expected to resolve quickly. Capable of far more than most Level IIs get credit for, with backup.
Comprehensive intensive care, subspecialty access, advanced respiratory support.
The sickest babies, surgical repair of complex conditions, the regional safety net.
Only 1,424 NICUs exist nationally, and the higher the level, the more they cluster in dense metros, children's hospitals, and academic centers.1 If you're a Level I or II, the system was drawn assuming your babies would travel.
Specialist backup changes what your level can safely do. Not by stretching your scope, but by using all of it: keeping the babies your level was designed to keep, and escalating the rest earlier and better.
