title: The Pregnancy Medical Home: use of the power of the Medicaid program to improve the standard of care across North Carolina.
abstract: The Pregnancy Medical Home (PMH) is a value-added, quality metrics-driven clinical program to improve the perinatal outcomes for pregnant women across the state of North Carolina. The PMH uses modest financial incentives to improve access to care, in a team approach led by obstetricians and supported by integrated aggressive care and case management.
