Babyscripts Partners With Lyft Healthcare to Sponsor Rides for Pregnant and Postpartum Patients with Transportation Insecurity
Summary
Inadequate prenatal care, experienced by more than 15% of pregnant women, is associated with poor outcomes such as preterm birth and low birthweight, and can be an indicator of long term health problems for mother and child. Many just cant take that amount of time off of work or find support for children at home, and they end up being forced to miss an appointment. This initiative marks the most recent step in Babyscripts commitment to maternity care that comprehensively addresses risks, both clinical and non-clinical. It is one of the many ways through which Babyscripts enables better access to care for pregnant and postpartum patients, and ensures that recognition of risk always leads to a response. Founded in 2014, Babyscripts offers the most-implemented mobile clinical solution for remote management of pregnancy and postpartum, with the mission to eliminate maternal mortality and improve access to care for all.
