Non-traditional approach to pregnancy disease management yields surprising outcomes
Women with low levels of education and scant financial resources are the hardest group to reach with quality prenatal care. As a result, poorer birth outcomes and high-cost utilization are difficult to prevent. However, an innovative program in Norfolk, VA, that pairs such women with a mentor for guidance and support has produced some remarkable results. And as a result, developers are looking to duplicate the effort in new areas.
