Information, tools, and support to understand and navigate the challenges of the maternal health space and explore available solutions.
REMOTE PATIENT MONITORING
Empowered Patients
Remote monitoring increases compliance to quality care measures while promoting health equity and supporting enhanced care despite workforce shortages.
Preeclampsia
Preeclampsia can often come with no warning, making it imperative for women to be educated about their risk and how to monitor symptoms.
Hypertension
Hypertensive disorders in pregnancy (HDPs) are a common pregnancy and postpartum complication, and a leading cause of maternal mortality in the United States.
Behavioral Health
Behavioral health issues represent the most common complication of pregnancy and childbirth in the United States.
Access to Care
Equitable Solutions
Improving access to care starts with understanding barriers to care, including physical availability of healthcare facilities and providers, but also the affordability, acceptability, and quality of services. Access to care is essential for enhancing health outcomes, reducing disparities, and promoting public health.
Maternity Care Deserts
A county qualifies as a maternity care desert if it has no hospitals providing obstetric care, no birth centers, no OB/GYN and no certified nurse midwives.
Medicaid
Medicaid is the largest single payer of pregnancy-related services. Medicaid covers a greater share of births in rural areas, among minority women, young women (under age 19), and women with lower levels of educational attainment.
Health Equity
Social determinants of health are some of the primary barriers to health equity, affecting maternal clinical outcomes and leading to an increased risk of maternal mortality and morbidity.
Comprehensive Care
Improved Outcomes
Comprehensive models of care promote a holistic approach to maternal health by integrating and sharing data across payers, healthcare teams and systems, and patients.
Care Collaboration
Our maternity care program enables care collaboration via a pathway of communication between clinician and payer to deliver benefits and ensure that data is being acted on.
Risk Identification
Babyscripts Care Pathways are automated and evidence-based plans that dynamically guide the patient journey in response to patient-generated needs or risks.
