Missouri Care Health Plan members should notify
the plan of their pregnancies right away so the health plan may begin Schaller Anderson's
Pathway to Prenatal CareTM Program. Simply send an e-mail message or call Member Services. Click on the
Contact Us page on this Web site to find out how.
Missouri Care Health Plan supports pregnant
women with a special program to help them stay healthy throughout their pregnancies
and make sure they get the health care services they need.
For members thinking about getting pregnant,
Missouri Care Health Plan offers pre-conception counseling to help give their babies
the best possible start in life. If a member already is pregnant, she can expect:
- Education on nutrition, stages of pregnancy,
fitness, childbirth preparation, sibling preparation and what mom can expect once
the baby is born
- Regular medical
care during and after pregnancy
-
Information, if needed, on supplemental nutrition programs such as WIC, dental care,
child health services and family planning
Missouri Care Health Plan cares about the
well being of every new life. We want parents to be as prepared as possible to care
for their new baby.
