Maximizing Outcomes for Moms through Medicaid Improvement and Enhancement of Services Act (MOMMIES Act) aims to improve maternal and infant health.
The MOMMIES Act seeks to improve Medicaid and the Children's Health Insurance Program (CHIP) for low-income mothers by extending continuous Medicaid and CHIP coverage for pregnant and postpartum individuals. It mandates that states provide full benefits for at least one year for pregnant and postpartum individuals, including oral health services. The bill also establishes a maternity care home demonstration project to improve maternity and infant care outcomes, birth equity, and health equity for underserved populations.
