Earlier this year, Georgia became the third state in the U.S. to extend Medicaid coverage for up to six months for women who had just given birth.
New moms who qualify for Medicaid will be able to receive healthcare for potentially dangerous conditions such as hypertension, stroke, or mental health concerns, which can arise after pregnancy in the first year after birth.
It’s a significant step in a state that has historically ranked among the highest in the country for deaths due to pregnancy complications. As of 2018, Georgia’s maternal death rate was at 27.7 deaths per 100,000 live births, according to the Centers for Disease Control and Prevention.  ....

Federal law requires states to update their plans for improving Medicaid health care quality at least every three years.
Georgia, however, published its most recent quality plan in February 2016. It’s at least two years out of date.
The guidelines aim to ensure members in Medicaid and the Children’s Health Insurance Program (known as PeachCare in Georgia) get quality health care and state taxpayers get a good return on their investment.
“With the large state investment in Medicaid, the state should have the information it needs to hold the contracted organizations accountable and ensure they are best serving the needs of enrollees,” said Laura Harker, senior policy analyst at Georgia Budget and Policy Institute. ....
