What is the Child Fatality Review Team?
Health General Article, §5-701- §5-709 established the Maryland State Child Fatality Review Program in 1999. The Maryland CFR Program is comprised of 24 local child fatality review teams and a State Child Fatality Review Team. Local CFR teams review all unexpected deaths of children under the age of 18 in their jurisdictions, referred by the Office of the Chief Medical Examiner (OCME), and make community-level recommendations for the prevention of child deaths. The state CFR Team reviews statewide child fatality review data to make state agency level recommendations for the prevention of child deaths.
The local Child Fatality Review team meets four times a year. Meetings are held at the Allegany County Health Department. When appropriate, all or part of these meetings may be closed to the public in accordance with the Open Meetings Act procedures.
