The Oklahoma Health Care Authority (OHCA), the state's Medicaid agency, was awarded a $999,709 Cooperative Agreement under the Centers for Medicare and Medicaid Services' (CMS) Transforming Maternal Health (TMaH) Model (CFDA 93.869). This 10-year grant program aims to improve maternal health outcomes for Medicaid and CHIP beneficiaries in Oklahoma. OHCA plans to implement the TMaH Model in 8 rural counties and 6 urban zip codes identified as having high levels of health disparities and social service needs. The project design includes leveraging non-traditional provider types, partnering with entities across the state, and engaging managed care plans, tribal providers, safety net providers, and community organizations to drive improvements in maternal health. OHCA also intends to utilize technology, such as closed-loop referral platforms, to address health-related social needs and achieve the model's goals of reducing low-risk cesarean sections, severe maternal morbidity, and low birthweight infant rates, while improving overall patient experience.
