4 PAGE 4 OF 4 For the high-risk patient, three levels of CNM/MD relationship exist: Consultation, Collaboration and Referral. The certified nurse-midwife must obtain consultation from a collaborating physician who has agreed in writing to provide such consultation for the following conditions except in potentially life-threatening circumstances in which appropriate consultation may be obtained from any qualified physician: a. Vaginal birth after caesarian (VBAC) (*collaboration at FSH) VBAC with pitocin or other complications (*collaboration at FSH and UMMC) b. History of shoulder dystocia (*collaboration at FSH and UMMC) c. Suspected fetal weight of <2500 gms or >4500 gms (*collaboration at FSH) d. Multiple gestation (*collaboration at FSH and UMMC) e. Pre-gestational or pre-existing insulin dependence (*collaboration at FSH and UMMC) f. Abnormal presentation (breech) (**referral at FSH *collaboration at UMMC) g. Intrauterine fetal death h. Labor <34 weeks or >42 weeks gestation (*collaboration at FSH) i. Abnormal vaginal bleeding persistent bleeding (*collaboration at FSH and UMMC) j. Mild pre-eclampsia severe pre-eclampsia (**referral at FSH, *collaboration at UMMC) k. Active genital herpes in labor (**referral at FSH) l. Maternal fever >100.4F m. Abnormal fetal heart rate pattern (*collaboration at FSH and UMMC) n. Arrest of cervical dilation o. Lack of progress in second stage (1 hour-multipara, 2 hour-primipara) (*collaboration at FSH and UMMC) p. Moderate or thick meconium * thick mec with abnormal FHR (*collaboration at FSH and UMMC) q. Prolapsed cord (**referral at FSH, *collaboration at UMMC) r. Uncontrolled post partum hemorrhage (**referral at FSH and *collaboration at UMMC) s. Retained placenta (**referral at FSH and *collaboration at UMMC) t. Third and fourth degree lacerations *Collaboration at FSH and UMMC if CNM is not privileged for this procedure u. Other medical or obstetrical abnormalities as determined by MD or CNM *= UMMC: MD collaborating and on campus for delivery (or postpartum event as indicated above) *= FSH: MD collaborating and on campus for the labor, delivery and/or significant event **= FSH: Requires immediate referral to the collaborating physician for management. Consultation: Consultation is the process whereby a certified nurse-midwife, who maintains primary management responsibility for the woman's care, seeks the advice or opinion of a physician. Collaboration: The process whereby a certified nurse-midwife and physician jointly manage the care of a woman or newborn who has become medically, gynecologically or obstetrically complicated. The scope of collaboration may encompass the physical care of the client, including delivery, by the certified nurse-midwife, according to a mutually agreed-upon plan of care. When the physician must assume a dominant role in the care of the client due to increased risk status, the certified nurse-midwife may continue to participate in physical care, counseling, guidance, teaching and support. Effective communication between the certified nursemidwife and physician is essential for ongoing collaborative management. Referral: Referral to medical management occurs at the discretion of either the CNM or the collaborating physician. I attest that I have written practice guidelines that are in accordance with the ACNM standards of practice and meet the UMMC guidelines for collaboration agreements between certified nurse-midwives and physicians which have been agreed upon by my collaborating physicians and which I agree to provide to UMMC at their request. I also attest that my professional liability insurance covers the privileges I have requested. Signature Date

5 Fairview Health Services COLLABORATING PHYSICIAN ATTESTATION FORM FOR CERTIFIED NURSE MIDWIFE Certified Nurse Midwives are associate professional staff at University of Minnesota Medical Center and/or Fairview Southdale Hospital are credentialed for certain activities as outlined within the CNM privilege form (attached). Each CNM is required to have a collaborative agreement with an OB/GYN physician who is a member, in good standing, of the Medical Staff at the Fairview Hospital at which the CNM is practicing. The collaborative agreement must meet the "UMMC Guidelines for Collaborative Agreements Between Certified Nurse Midwives and Physicians" as attached. As a collaborating physician, I have reviewed the privilege form and "Guidelines for Collaborative Agreements Between Certified Nurse Midwives and Physicians" with, CNM and attest that I do have a written agreement with the CNM identified above which meets these guidelines. Physician Name (please print) Physician Signature Date

6 PAGE 1 OF 2 GUIDELINES FOR COLLABORATIVE AGREEMENTS BETWEEN CERTIFIED NURSE MIDWIVES PHYSICIANS Purpose: The purpose of these guidelines is to identify issues which must be addressed in collaboration agreements between certified nurse-midwives (CNM) and physicians (MD) for certified nurse-midwives to be considered for professional staff privileges at University of Minnesota Medical Center (UMMC) and or Fairview Southdale Hospital. Collaboration agreements may address additional issues and these guidelines are not intended as an exhaustive framework for all of the considerations which may be included in such an agreement. Development: The development of a collaboration agreement is a complex task. The collaboration agreement reflects mutual trust and effort between the CNMs and MDs. Collaboration agreements should be developed jointly by the certified nursemidwives and collaborating physicians. Each CNM is required to have a signed collaboration agreement with at least one MD who is a member in good standing of the medical staff at UMMC or FSH (depending on facility used by the physician and CNM). More than one CNM or more than one MD may be the party to a collaboration agreement, provided that each of the midwives and physicians are individually bound to the responsibilities and obligations set forth in the agreement. Collaboration agreements should be reviewed and renewed at least every two years prior to the time of the CNM's application for reappointment and may be reviewed and modified more frequently if the circumstances warrant changes. Requirements: 1. Background: A Collaboration Agreement must include the following background information: Name, practice address, and telephone numbers of the CNM or CNMs; and Name, address and telephone numbers of collaborating MD or MDs. 2. Call Consulting Coverage: The collaboration agreement must include a statement identifying the arrangements between the CMNs and MDs for call coverage and consultation for patients at UMMC consistent with the policies of UMMC and good patient care for availability and timeliness. 3. Written Practice Guidelines: The collaboration agreement will provide for written practice guidelines which are agreed upon with the collaborating MD. The practice guidelines may be a part of the collaboration agreement or an attachment which is addressed in the collaboration agreement. The practice guidelines shall contain a description of the scope of the CNM's practice and relationship with the collaborating MD. In addition, the practice guidelines must specifically address guidelines for consultation with the physician for the following conditions: a. Vaginal birth after caesarian (VBAC) (*collaboration at FSH) VBAC with pitocin or other complications (*collaboration at FSH and UMMC) b. History of shoulder dystocia (*collaboration at FSH and UMMC) c. Suspected fetal weight of < 2500gms. or >4500gms (*collaboration at FSH) d. Multiple gestation (*collaboration at FSH and UMMC) e. Gestational or pre-existing insulin dependence (*collaboration at FSH and UMMC) f. Abnormal presentation (breech) (** referral at FSH, *collaboration at UMMC) g. Intrauterine fetal death h. Labor <34 weeks or >42 weeks gestation (*collaboration at FSH)

7 PAGE 2 OF 2 i. Abnormal vaginal bleeding persistent bleeding (*collaboration at FSH and UMMC) j. Mild pre-eclampsia severe pre-eclampsia (**referral at FSH, *collaboration at UMMC) k. Active genital herpes in labor (**referral at FSH) l. Maternal fever >100.4F m. Abnormal fetal heart rate pattern (*collaboration at FSH and UMMC) n. Arrest of cervical dilation o. Lack of progress in second stage (1 hour-multipara, 2 hour-primipara) (*collaboration at FSH and UMMC) p. Moderate or thick meconium * thick mec with abnormal FHR (*collaboration at FSH and UMMC) q. Prolapsed cord (*referral at FSH *collaboration at UMMC) r. Uncontrolled post partum hemorrhage (*referral at FSH and *collaboration at UMMC) s. Retained placenta (*referral at FSH and *collaboration at UMMC) t. Third and fourth degree lacerations *Collaboration at FSH and UMMC if CNM is not privileged for this procedure u. Other medical or obstetrical abnormalities as determined by MD or CNM *= UMMC: MD collaborating and on campus for delivery (or postpartum event as indicated above) *= FSH: MD collaborating and on campus for the labor, delivery and/or significant event **= FSH: Requires immediate referral to the collaborating physician for management. Practice guidelines for the listed conditions should include specific statements regarding call coverage and timeliness for consultations and should identify under what conditions the consulting physician must be present at UMMC for the consultation. Minimal expectation is that the MD will be on campus for labor and delivery (at FSH) or delivery (at UMMC) in which collaboration occurs (including all asterisk deliveries). 4. Practice and Consultation Review: The collaboration agreement shall describe the process through which the CNM and MD will review patient care to identify any areas which require changes in the practice guidelines or changes in the scope of the CNM's practice or the consulting relationship with the MD. A general review and discussion of the practice should be held not less frequently than once a year, and more often as circumstances or the understandings between the parties may require. 5. Description of Scope of Certified Nurse Midwife's Prescriptive Practice: The collaboration agreement shall include a description of the general scope of the CNM's prescribing practice and should identify the drugs and devices which the CNM may prescribe, with any limitations, without review by the consulting MD. The consulting MD and the CNM shall regularly review the prescriptive practices consistent with the community standards for care. The nature and frequency of such review may be based upon the nature of the practice, the patient acuity and the experience of the providers. The collaboration agreement should describe a schedule and general method for review of the prescriptive practices. 6. Signatures of Parties: The collaboration agreement must be signed by each of the CNMs and MD who agree to collaborate on patient care in the manner described in the agreement. It is not adequate to have the agreement signed on behalf of the practice group, corporation or other entity. An entity may be an additional party to a collaboration agreement, but it must be signed by the individuals who will be collaborating.
