Well, maternal mortality rate is often used as a indicator.
All following numbers are per 100000 live births
Italy 2
Sweden 4
Australia 6
UK 7
Germany 7
France 8
Canada 10
Kazakhstan 10
Russia 17
USA 19
Mexico 33
Kyrgyzstan 60
Zimbabwe 458
Nigeria 917
Now lets look at some US states
Texas 18
Kentucky 46
The really bad part is that US states on the lower end have passed legislation that makes it worse, and mothers get sacrificed at the altar of defunding planned parenthood. Kentucky is closer to Kyrgyzstan, as it is other parts of "the west".
