Maternity Management and Education

The Baby Benefits® program supplements regular prenatal care and doctor visits, educating expectant women about pregnancy and supporting them in following their doctors’ care plans. Healthy pregnancies can result in fewer complications and premature births, increased birth weight, less workplace absenteeism, and reduced claim costs.

A Baby Benefits obstetrical nurse works with the patient and her health care provider to promote a healthy pregnancy and identify possible risks using these tools:

• risk factor identification and health assessments throughout the pregnancy;

• individualized education on how to reduce risk factors;

• 24/7 toll-free access to registered nurses to discuss pregnancy topics;

• a book with detailed information about pregnancy week-by-week and helpful tips for fathers too;

• healthy pregnancy education materials;

• post-partum assessment;

• childhood immunization schedule and suggestions on ways to keep a newborn safe.
