Northern Nevada HOPES has teamed up with UnitedHealthcare to launch a new maternal health program for pregnant women engaged in substance abuse.
The program is set to open in July 2025, and is made possible through a $708,092 donation from UnitedHealthcare Health Plan of Nevada Medicaid.
The program aims to expand access to maternal and infant health services with a dedicated focus on supporting moms with drug use issues, to help ensure the health of both the baby and the mother.
Organizers say the donation will help boost access to comprehensive care for preventable conditions like gestational diabetes, preterm labor and preeclampsia.
If you're interested in becoming a patient or would just like to learn more, call Northern Nevada HOPES at (775) 786-4673 or visit the HOPES website.
