Ouma Case Study
Going Above & Beyond
A 39-years-old woman with a pregnancy at 21 weeks complicated by hypertension was seen for initial intake by Ouma physician, at which time it was noted that she could not afford a blood pressure cuff. Ouma made arrangements and blood pressure cuff was immediately mailed to her home.

At 29 weeks she contacted Ouma with severe-range blood pressure values, and her family practitioner wanted her to be transported to tertiary care center for delivery. She met with Ouma's MFM physician within hours, was prescribed higher-dose regimen, and her primary care physician was contacted to provide reassurance that this was physiologic rise in the 3rd trimester and did not necessitate delivery. She successfully went on to delivery at 37 weeks.

Outcome: Potential early delivery and 8-week NICU stay avoided along with unnecessary medical transport cost.

End-to-End Coverage

The Patient Journey

From preconception to postpartum, Ouma providers support patients in every step of their pregnancy journey with real clinical care.

Prenatal Care

Whether prenatal, or even pre-prenatal, Ouma has expert coverage for all practical maternal health needs to bring peace of mind during an exciting but challenging time.
Preconception Care
A visit with one of our clinicians before the pregnancy to reduce the risk of adverse health effects for the woman, fetus, and neonate by optimizing health, addressing modifiable risk factors, and providing education about healthy pregnancy.
Behavioral Health/Substance-Use Disorders Support
Our specialists are well-versed in both and can help with counseling regarding complications related to substance use disorders, formulate care plans for treatment during pregnancy, pain management during and after delivery, as well as communication with pediatric providers regarding the possibility of neonatal withdrawal, and offer behavioral health support including diagnosis, treatment, and therapy with focus on coping mechanisms and non-pharmacologic intervention
Interprofessional Consults
There is a shortage of MFM specialists so providers often call a nearby one for advice on a difficult case. We feel that a more comprehensive process (documented with all details available to the consultant is better care).
Remote Patient Monitoring
More pregnant people suffer from conditions such as diabetes and hypertension in pregnancy necessitating frequent visits (as often as weekly the last 2 months). Ouma deploys market ready RPM solutions to save the member valuable travel time while delivering world class medical care in the comfort of their home, with care on their schedule not the provider’s.
Prenatal Safety Net

Postpartum Care

Ouma's work doesn't stop after the baby is born – the work of behavioral health specialists and lactation consultants is crucial to transitioning to regular life.
Lactation Consultations
Many women don’t know who to call for problems after having the baby and many providers do not have all the necessary resources. This is why we take postpartum care to them including access to teleLactation services.
