No family should go into debt to have a baby.
We are standing up for healthy moms and healthy babies. Add your name to the petition and send a letter to your lawmakers in support of zero-cost birth.
The cost of having a baby is too high.
For many families, the bills tied to pregnancy and childbirth arrive right when life is already stretched thin. Out-of-pocket costs lead some parents to skip prenatal visits or postpartum care they truly need. That is bad for moms, bad for babies, and avoidable.
We support zero-cost birth: the idea that essential maternity and newborn care should not come with a price tag that keeps families from getting healthy care.
Supporting Healthy Moms and Babies Act
S.1834 and H.R.3762, 119th Congress. A bipartisan bill that would:
- End out-of-pocket cost-sharing for prenatal, childbirth, neonatal, and postpartum care
- Make maternity and newborn care an essential health benefit
- Cover miscarriage and pregnancy-loss care
- Include behavioral health support for new parents for up to a year after birth
Add your name for zero-cost birth.
By signing, you are telling lawmakers that families in your community support the Supporting Healthy Moms and Babies Act and the goal of zero-cost birth.
