AI Summary

This bill, the Data to Save Moms Act, would authorize funding for maternal mortality review committees to promote representative community engagement. Specifically, it would provide grants to maternal mortality review committees to increase the diversity of their membership, conduct outreach and community engagement in minority communities, and publicly report on their review processes with a focus on racial and ethnic disparities. The bill also requires the Secretary of Health and Human Services to review existing maternal health data collection processes and quality measures, and make recommendations to improve them, with a focus on addressing racial disparities in maternal health outcomes.
