Details:
The purpose of this program is to foster the development and demonstration of integrated health services models, such as the Maternity Medical Home (sometimes referred to as the Pregnancy Medical Home (PMH)) which is modeled after the patient- centered medical home. The models developed and demonstrated by this program will support comprehensive care (including clinical, ancillary, behavioral health, and support services) for pregnant and postpartum people who experience health disparities and have limited access to basic social and health care services. The IMHS initiative will be used to identify integrated health services models for future replication that will improve maternal health outcomes, advance equity, and address systemic barriers.
Program Goal
The overarching goal of the IMHS initiative is to improve maternal health outcomes in the United States by increasing access to quality, equitable, comprehensive care for pregnant and postpartum people who experience health disparities and have limited access to basic social and health care services.
The program will work towards achieving this goal by:
- Fostering collaborative relationships between health care providers, social services organizations/providers, state Medicaid programs, and state and local health departments to coordinate services and improve maternal health outcomes;
- Developing and enhancing maternal health data infrastructure at the maternal health care practice and population levels;
- Assessing the viability of various models that support integrated health services for pregnant and postpartum people; and,
- Identifying lessons learned for future implementation.
