This project consists of two parts. In part 1, the Urban Institute team will describe the current policy landscape in terms of Medicaid/CHIP and subsidized marketplace options for covering new mothers, documenting who would benefit from the proposed extension of pregnancy-related Medicaid coverage. In part 2, using Urban’s modeling capacity, they would estimate uninsured new mothers’ eligibility for publicly subsidized coverage under current law and their potential eligibility under a 12-month postpartum Medicaid extension.
