Leading Pregnancy App Babyscripts and New Orleans-based LCMC Health Celebrate One Year of Partnership
Summary
Pregnant and postpartum mothers receiving care through LCMC Health have access to Babyscripts myJourney, a mobile app that offers provider-approved educational content, gestational age-appropriate information, reminders, and notifications to improve engagement and adherence to quality measures, weight tracking, and practice-specific resources. “LCMC Health continues to seek pertinent ways to address community needs and enhance the patient experience for families in Louisiana and throughout the Gulf South. Since the inception of the partnership, mothers enrolled on Babyscripts receiving care through LCMC Health have demonstrated the following improvement: • Patients enrolled in myBloodPressure have demonstrated sustained compliance with blood pressure monitoring, allowing providers to capture more than four times the amount of data collected in a traditional office setting • Patient compliance with remote monitoring has exceeded LCMC Health’s target goals, with levels of patient engagement and satisfaction consistently exceeding targets by as much as thirty percent • Babyscripts users were more than two times as likely to complete a 30-day postpartum visit than the control group • At 60 days postpartum, 64% of Babyscripts users had completed a postpartum visit, compared to 44% of the control group. “The ability to access adequate prenatal and postpartum care is one of the largest predictors of maternal and infant health outcomes,” said Juan Pablo Segura, President and co-founder of Babyscripts. Since 2014, we’ve delivered the most-implemented mobile clinical solution for remote monitoring in pregnancy, with the mission to eliminate maternal mortality and improve access to care for all mothers.
