The process of birth itself can shape health outcomes. Preterm delivery, complications during birth, or a stressful delivery environment can trigger biological stress responses in newborns, influencing gene expression from day one. Supporting safe, healthy births through access to skilled care and reducing racial disparities in maternal outcomes helps set children on a healthier path from the very start.
We learned valuable lessons running FamilyCare Health Plans for more than 30 years. Our proven track record shows that addressing the social, economic, and behavioral drivers of health improves outcomes while reducing costs. Now, as an independent non-profit, we're committed to sharing these insights and helping transform the healthcare system.
