HEALTH for MOM Act of 2025
Introduced May 13, 2025 by Rep. Zachary Nunn
It's waiting on a committee vote to reach the full chamber. Most bills never leave this stage.
This bill allows state Medicaid programs to cover services that are provided by maternity health homes (designated providers or health teams that provide pregnancy and postpartum coordinated care services).
Participating maternity health homes must meet standards set by the Centers for Medicare & Medicaid Services (CMS), including the ability to coordinate prompt access to services, develop individualized care plans, provide supportive services, and coordinate with pediatric care providers. States must conduct outreach to providers, pregnant women, and other relevant stakeholders on the availability of such health homes and must report specified information relating to the implementation and outcomes of such services.
The CMS must award grants to states to develop plans for implementation. The bill also temporarily increases the Federal Medical Assistance Percentage (i.e., federal matching rate) for maternity health home services.
Summary by the Congressional Research Service.
No floor votes yet — it hasn't reached the floor of either chamber.
