This Project Grant award from the Health Resources and Services Administration (HRSA) under the Maternal and Child Health Federal Consolidated Programs (CFDA 93.110) provides $599,927 to the Dartmouth-Hitchcock Clinic to conduct research on the use of elective induction of labor (EIOL) as a potential solution to improve rural maternity care access and narrow the gap between rural and urban birth outcomes. The award period runs from September 1, 2025 to August 31, 2028. The research seeks to examine the utilization and impact of EIOL in rural populations, as recent evidence suggests it may reduce cesarean section rates and pregnancy complications. The project aims to generate insights on innovative approaches to address the significant disparities in maternal and child health outcomes between rural and urban areas, which are exacerbated by the closure of many rural obstetric units. Findings from this research could inform strategies to improve access to timely childbirth services and enhance maternal and child health in underserved rural communities.
