Bill > S1599

This bill, the Data to Save Moms Act, aims to promote representative community engagement in maternal mortality review committees. It provides grants to help these committees increase the diversity of their membership and conduct outreach and engagement efforts within communities, particularly focusing on outreach to racial and ethnic minority groups. 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. Additionally, the bill calls for a comprehensive study on maternal health among American Indian and Alaska Native individuals, as well as grants to minority-serving institutions to study maternal mortality, severe maternal morbidity, and other adverse maternal health outcomes among racial and ethnic minority groups.
