As more hospitals across the country shut down their maternity wards, a Sutter Health-owned hospital in Berkeley has taken proactive steps to ensure it can continue providing care for the pregnant people in its community. The hospital partnered with Millie, a Berkeley-based startup offering hybrid maternal care from midwives and doulas.
A recent peer-reviewed study from Maven Clinic found that virtual doulas significantly reduced the chances of a C-section, especially among Black mothers.
Blue Shield of California is now offering Mahmee, a maternal health company, to eight employer groups. It comes after a successful pilot in which Mahmee served 80 members.
Doulas — who provide physical, emotional and informational support to expectant mothers — have shown to improve maternal health outcomes, but there's little insurance coverage of their services. That's starting to change, however, particularly in Medicaid programs.
Healthcare payments are no longer about transactions. It’s about controlling the revenue cycle. And increasingly, that control is not sitting with ISOs.
Mae’s services will be a covered benefit for Aetna Better Health Medicaid members through a new pilot program. These services include access to a culturally-competent doula and an engagement platform that provides weekly check-ins and tools to support maternal health.
