Governor Kathy Hochul announced a series of proposed initiatives to address maternal and infant death in New York, including paid leave for prenatal care.
To address the problem, Ms. Hochul, a Democrat, is proposing a six-point plan to improve maternal and infant health, which would include the elimination of co-pays for pregnancy services, expanded access to doulas statewide, training for clinicians on maternal mental health and free cribs for low-income parents.
