AI Summary

This bill, the Innovative Maternal Payment And Coverage To Save Moms Act (also known as the IMPACT to Save Moms Act), would require the Secretary of Health and Human Services to establish and implement a Perinatal Care Alternative Payment Model Demonstration Project. The project would allow states to test payment models under their Medicaid and Children's Health Insurance Program (CHIP) plans for maternity care provided to pregnant and postpartum individuals. The bill outlines specific considerations for the Secretary in establishing the project, such as including non-clinical perinatal health workers, addressing social determinants of health, and improving outcomes for racial and ethnic groups with disproportionate rates of adverse maternal health outcomes. The bill also requires an evaluation of the project and a report to Congress on its results and recommendations for continuing or expanding the project.
