Our new moms are in crisis, and the time to act is now. What happened to Tori Bowie— what happens to hundreds of women each year – is largely preventable.
While marriage equality became federal law in 2015, social stigma persists — and outdated policies, loopholes and state-level legislation complicate the path to parenthood for many LGBTQ+ individuals.
In less than two years, Aetna's Medicaid program in Florida has outpaced the national average for NICU births through a partnership with ProgenyHealth, a case management platform serving mothers and their newborn children.
Starting this August, Aetna is adding Progeny’s maternity care management program to its services for members. This will help support pregnant mothers, especially those who are identified as high-risk, in addition to babies who require NICU care after birth.
By ensuring a seamless continuum of care from conception through to prenatal, delivery, and a full year postpartum, health plans and providers alike can promote the kind of proactive and preventative comprehensive care that promotes healthier pregnancies, healthier deliveries, and healthier starts to life. I’ve outlined three key areas that will be most impacted - for the better - by the recent expansions.
Today, we are in the infancy of maternal care. How else to explain our abysmal mortality rate, and our inability to keep it from rising, even as we watch in horror?
By applying a more comprehensive maternity journey, we are able to address social determinants of health that vary by population, geography, and community – and are estimated to impact 80% of an individual’s overall, long-term health.
Pennsylvania has recently cleared a major healthcare milestone. Along with 12 other states, the state leveraged funds from the American Rescue Plan Act to extend the state’s Medicaid postpartum coverage from 60 days to a full year following delivery. The funding will run for five years. Colloquially known as the “fourth trimester,” this essential healing, recovery, and bonding window is for the long-term health of both mother and infant.
High cost does not necessarily equal high quality, as the United States’ healthcare record proves. Despite outspending every other Organisation for European Economic Co-operation and Development country on healthcare expenditure by nearly twofold, the U.S. has the lowest overall life expectancy and the highest incidence of chronic disease, suicide, and obesity.
To protect mothers, we must invest in a culturally relevant, community-based continuum of care. We must unite policymakers, advocates, physicians, health systems, payers, midwives, doulas, and community organizations in order to develop a standardized continuum of care.
Maternity and neonatal care company ProgenyHealth anticipates five trends will dominate the way payers cover and support mothers and caregivers.
Self-insuring allows the flexibility to design individually-tailored plans for organizations and avoid unnecessary expenses, yet there are certain inevitable scenarios that can ruin even the most beautifully planned budget.
The program provides continuous, connected support from early identification of a pregnancy through birth and postpartum stages of the parenting journey, including return to work planning.budget.
When it comes to pregnancy amid a pandemic, there is no manual. Where once expecting moms could find answers to most of their questions within a copy of “What to Expect When You’re Expecting,” the book contains no chapter on how to navigate pregnancy and new motherhood during a pandemic.

As the pandemic continues amidst a long road to recovery, we must take the opportunity to reframe the delivery of healthcare in the U.S. to effect meaningful change. By embracing antiracist ideas and policies, providers can actively challenge deeply rooted effects of racism and bias wherever they arise, whenever they are encountered.
The pandemic has underscored the significant challenges working families face, but many employers have failed to make long-term changes that will alleviate some of the burdens. If these companies don’t step up to better support these employees, it will come at a heavy cost.
Despite representing only 43% of births in Philadelphia from 2013 – 2018, Black women accounted for 73% of the pregnancy-related deaths over that five-year period. As of 2018, Philly’s infant mortality rate (IMR) mirrored the magnitude of its maternal loss. That year, the rate was 8.1 deaths per 1,000 births, vastly exceeding the national average of 5.8.
Mental health and physical health services are equally important and contribute to overall health and well-being. It is important to screen all caregivers for their mental well-being and moms in particular, for post-partum depression. Should there be any concerns identified, this will allow for timely interventions and support. Ensuring the mental and physical health of all moms and caregivers will allow them to be fully present and able to care for their children and families.

Becoming a new mother in America is more dangerous for some mothers than it should be. Each year, 700 women die in childbirth or from pregnancy-related causes in the United States, the highest number of any developed nation.
I knew I wanted to pursue a career in medicine from a very young age and was first exposed to HIT as a private practice physician. Our team used the EHR as an electronic repository and billing platform, but I saw the real power of technology when I moved into Medicaid managed care.
ProgenyHealth, LLC, provider of comprehensive NICU care management for premature and medically complex newborns, today announced the appointment of Leslie V. Norwalk to its board of managers.
Despite great advances in the U.S. medical community, lack of health equity denies too many Americans the opportunity to have as healthy a lifestyle as possible. Before a baby’s very first breath, socioeconomic factors way beyond their control will play an irrevocable role in their long-term health and well-being.
COVID-19 affects all segments of the population in the United States, including children, who experience physical, social, and emotional consequences from the pandemic.1 Given substantially higher rates of COVID-19 infections and deaths in low-income communities and communities of color, the disproportionate impact of social determinants may widen health disparities as a result of the pandemic.
