There\u2019s an increasing urgency to better support women during the postpartum period. The March of Dimes recently gave the United States a meager D+ for women\u2019s and infant health,<\/a> and the U.S. continues to be one of the only industrialized countries<\/a> where the maternal mortality rate is increasing. <\/p>\n\n\n\n

While most postpartum care is rightly focused on the mother\u2019s physical recovery, there\u2019s more to postpartum care than physical recovery. The fact is that the postpartum period is a critical time to also address the mother\u2019s mental health and any risk factors that arose during pregnancy and childbirth. With as many as one-third of women globally<\/a> experiencing health problems after giving birth that can impact the lifelong quality and trajectory of her physical and mental health, it is paramount that women have the tools, digital solutions, and trusted resources that provide early and continuous support. <\/p>\n\n\n\n

Ovia Health\u2019s new Postpartum Experience<\/a> is exactly that\u2013a comprehensive 12-month program that starts by supporting birth recovery, common postpartum conditions or complications, and providing real-time mental health support. As women progress to later postpartum stages, the Postpartum Experience progresses with them to support needs such as reproductive planning and contraception, return to work, social and financial health, and navigation to SDOH services and care where needed.<\/p>\n\n\n\n

No two women\u2019s postpartum needs are the same, and the Postpartum Experience in Ovia is designed to reflect and respond to those unique needs. One of the most exciting ways our solution innovates postpartum care is by delivering personalized postpartum insights for each member.<\/p>\n\n\n\n

Each member\u2019s recovery is personalized to delivery type and coexisting conditions, allowing them to track how they are doing each day. If a member marks a symptom that could be a potential risk based on their health history, pre-existing condition or complication, they receive a Critical Alert that explains the potential risk and the best next action: click to call their provider, and\/or contact the Care Team.<\/p>\n\n\n\n

Our solution also provides specific support for people who have pregnancy conditions or gestational complications that benefit from continuous management and support. For example, if a woman is diagnosed with gestational diabetes, this member\u2019s Postpartum Experience is tailored to her health profile and educates her on the need and importance of monitoring blood sugar during her postpartum stage, the increased risk of type II diabetes, and when to take a postpartum glucose tolerance test. If she doesn\u2019t have a physician, our Care Team can help her find one that meets her needs and preferences, or she can reach out to the Care Team to make sure she understands her specific needs. <\/p>\n\n\n\n

Our postpartum programming is personalized across a number of needs, including:<\/p>\n\n\n\n
