We strongly support The Quality Care for Moms and Babies Act (S. 466 and H.R. 4695) as a way to improve maternal and child health in the United States. In particular, it would help identify standards that can be used to optimize care and improve outcomes for both childbearing women and newborns – especially those covered by Medicaid and the Children’s Health Insurance Program (CHIP). It would also enhance progress toward a high-performing maternity care system by addressing performance measurement gaps and supporting the work of maternity care quality collaboratives.
