The UMR Maternity Management program provides prenatal education and high-risk
pregnancy identification for expectant members. The result is an increased number of healthy,
full-term deliveries and a decrease in costly, long-term hospital stays.
All expectant members in this program, regardless of their risk, receive an outbound
recruitment call and letter. Once the member agrees to participate, UMR maternity nurses complete
an initial assessment. Educational materials are sent to the member to support a healthy pregnancy
through educated decision-making.
If the member becomes high-risk, she’ll receive additional, more intensive
support.

-
Identification via a maternity management survey, self-referral or the clinical
health risk assessment (CHRA)
