- Summary:
-
A hearing was held to consider problems women face in obtaining preventive care or early comprehensive prenatal care. Testimony concerned: (1) the Public Health Service Expert Panel's report on prenatal care; (2) Los Angeles' critical shortage of maternity care providers; (3) new research from Detroit that suggests that even when prenatal care is available, women at highest risk receive the worst care; and (4) promising approaches to improving maternity care, including the March of Dimes' Campaign for Healthier Babies and a prenatal care program for employees of the First National Bank of Chicago. Fact sheets on problems and solutions related to providing care for new mothers, and numerous tables of data on care and related topics are included in the report. Also included are answers to questions posed by Representatives Bliley and Miller to James O. Mason, M.D., Assistant Secretary of the Public Health Service of the Department of Health and Human Services, concerning the President's plan to improve child health and reduce infant mortality. (RH)
