Boosts funding and shares best practices to help prevent maternal deaths and improve care for new mothers.
This bill would increase money for state groups that review maternal deaths. It would also make sure hospitals and doctors get yearly updates on the best ways to prevent deaths during and after pregnancy. This aims to improve care and safety for pregnant and postpartum individuals across the country.
Today, federal law sets aside $58 million each year for state committees that review maternal deaths. There is no explicit rule for the government to regularly share best practices on preventing maternal deaths with hospitals. If this bill becomes law, it would set aside $100 million each year from 2026 to 2030 for these committees. It would also require the Centers for Disease Control and Prevention to share best practices with hospitals and doctor groups at least once a year.
