have partnered to provide remote monitoring solutions to expand access to quality healthcare for high-risk pregnancies in the state. In support of the Georgia Healthy Babies Act, the program will initially give pregnant and postpartum people with maternal hypertension and diabetes in 50 counties access to remote patient monitoring.

合作提供远程监控解决方案，以扩大该州高危妊娠获得优质医疗保健的机会。作为佐治亚州健康婴儿法案的支持举措，该项目将首先为50个县的患有妊娠高血压和糖尿病的孕妇及产后人士提供远程患者监控。

Licensed clinical professionals will provide personalized health coaching to participants, monitoring them and intervening to avoid possible complications.  .

持证临床专业人士将为参与者提供个性化的健康指导，监测他们并进行干预以避免可能的并发症。

“Amerigroup is proud to collaborate on this important initiative, which aims to significantly improve maternal health outcomes in Georgia through innovative remote monitoring solutions,” said Dr. Truddie Darden, Chief Medical Director for Amerigroup Georgia. “Together, we strive to make transformative progress and have a life-changing impact on vulnerable mothers and babies across the state.”.

“安美集团很荣幸能参与这一重要倡议，该倡议旨在通过创新的远程监控解决方案显著改善乔治亚州的孕产妇健康状况，”安美集团乔治亚州首席医疗总监特鲁迪·达登博士表示。“我们共同努力，力求取得变革性的进展，并对全州范围内脆弱的母亲和婴儿产生改变生活的影响。”

“Peach State Health Plan is dedicated to moving the needle for Georgian moms by working with strong partners and implementing innovative solutions that support and improve their care,” said Laquanda Brooks, Senior Vice President, Population Health and Clinical Operations at Peach State Health Plan.

“桃州健康计划致力于通过与强大的合作伙伴合作并实施创新解决方案来推动乔治亚州母亲的健康水平，这些方案支持并改善她们的护理，”桃州健康计划人口健康与临床运营高级副总裁拉昆达·布鲁克斯表示。

“Through remote patient monitoring and by taking a personalized approach to care, we’re better positioned to support mothers and their babies and improve maternity outcomes in Georgia.” .

“通过远程患者监测并采取个性化的护理方法，我们能够更好地支持佐治亚州的母亲及其婴儿，改善孕产结果。”

Maternal healthcare in the U.S. is a national priority, with 62% of pregnancies identified as high risk for unexpected complications [1], including an 81.3% increase in hypertension and 50% in diabetes [2]. Additionally, over 35% [2] of US counties are maternity care deserts and by 2030, the supply of OB-GYNs in non-metro U.S.

美国的孕产妇医疗保健是一个国家优先事项，62%的妊娠被确定为存在意外并发症的高风险 [1]，其中包括高血压增加81.3%，糖尿病增加50% [2]。此外，超过35% [2] 的美国县是产科护理荒漠，到2030年，美国非都市地区的妇产科医生供应量将不足。

areas is projected to only meet 50% of demand [3]. In Georgia, Medicaid covers close to 50% of all births and the state ranks 31st of 40 in maternal mortality [4], prompting the state’s lawmakers to introduce new bills that increase support for Medicaid-eligible families, including new remote technologies that can provide a lifeline in maternal health deserts..

这些地区的供应预计只能满足50%的需求[3]。在佐治亚州，医疗补助计划覆盖了近50%的分娩，并且该州在孕产妇死亡率方面排名40个州中的第31位[4]，这促使该州立法者引入新法案，增加对符合医疗补助资格家庭的支持，包括可以为孕产妇健康荒漠地区提供生命线的新远程技术。

“Our members are working moms, moms who face challenges with childcare or transportation, and moms in rural Georgia who have limited access to healthcare,” said Lisa Pennington, senior manager of population health, CareSource Georgia. “By bringing care right to their homes through connected devices, we’re offering them timely, personalized healthcare that can make a real difference in the health and well-being of moms and babies, no matter where they live in the state.”.

“我们的成员是职场妈妈、面临育儿或交通挑战的妈妈，以及居住在佐治亚州农村地区、医疗资源有限的妈妈，”凯撒资源乔治亚州人口健康高级经理丽莎·彭宁顿表示。“通过连接设备将医疗服务直接送到她们家中，我们为她们提供及时且个性化的医疗保健，无论她们住在州内的哪个地方，这都能对妈妈和婴儿的健康与福祉产生真正的积极影响。”

Pregnant women with maternal hypertension or diabetes who are covered by Medicaid can opt into the program and will receive appropriate monitoring devices. A Philips licensed nurse, dietitian, and certified diabetes care and education specialist will then walk them through how to use the devices as well as schedule coaching calls.

患有妊娠高血压或糖尿病并享有医疗补助的孕妇可以加入该项目，并将获得适当的监测设备。随后，飞利浦的注册护士、营养师和认证糖尿病护理及教育专家将指导她们如何使用这些设备，并安排辅导电话。

The clinicians receive an alert if a participant’s blood glucose or blood pressure is out of range and reach out to see if they can help provide coaching, identify additional symptoms, and determine if the participant needs to see their provider. The remote monitoring continues for up to 90 days postpartum. .

如果参与者的血糖或血压超出范围，临床医生会收到警报，并主动联系他们，看是否可以提供指导、识别其他症状，并判断参与者是否需要就诊。这种远程监测会持续到产后最多90天。

“Philips is committed to improving maternal healthcare and ensuring that all expectant women have access to high-quality prenatal and postpartum care,” said Jennifer Law, Maternal Health Leader at Philips. “We enable this through partnerships with innovative organizations like Peach State Health Plan, Amerigroup, and CareSource that share our mission of improving lives.

“飞利浦致力于改善孕产妇医疗保健，并确保所有孕妇都能获得高质量的产前和产后护理，”飞利浦孕产妇健康负责人詹妮弗·劳表示。“我们通过与桃州健康计划、Amerigroup 和 CareSource 等创新组织合作来实现这一目标，这些组织与我们一样，肩负着改善生活的使命。

It takes an ecosystem of innovators, providers, payers, and policymakers working together to ensure a healthy pregnancy and start for every mom and child.”.

“确保每位母亲和儿童的健康怀孕和良好开端，需要创新者、服务提供者、支付方和政策制定者共同努力，形成一个协作的生态系统。”
