The OAG is happy to recognize the hospitals across the state that comply with the Acknowledgement of Paternity (AOP) regulations.

Every year, the Office of the Attorney General monitors every hospital to ensure they are complying with the AOP regulations. A Paternity Outreach Coordinator will visit every hospital at least three times a year to evaluate how the AOP-certified staff is executing AOPs.
