For payers and ACOs
Better maternal outcomes, lower total cost
Materna helps Medicaid managed-care plans and ACOs reach the members who are hardest to engage, close maternal care gaps, and improve quality measures, with a Spanish-first experience built for the populations that carry the most risk.
How Materna moves your numbers
Risk stratification
Hourly risk computation surfaces members trending toward preeclampsia, preterm birth, gestational diabetes, and postpartum depression, so outreach reaches them before an admission.
Closed-loop SDOH
A coordinator portal turns social-needs referrals (housing, food, transportation, immigration) into closed loops you can report on, not dead ends.
Member engagement in Spanish
Voice-first, Spanish-first design reaches Hispanic and Latina members who are often undercounted in engagement, which is where quality gaps concentrate.
Quality measures
Prenatal and postpartum touchpoints, depression screening, and well-child follow-up are built into the flow to support the maternity-related quality measures plans report.
Flexible commercial models
Materna works under per-member arrangements and value-based contracts, including shared savings tied to measurable improvement. Care is free for patients, which removes a barrier to engagement.

Frequently asked questions
- What is the ROI or value for the plan?
- The platform is designed to support HEDIS prenatal and postpartum quality measures, help divert avoidable ED visits, close care gaps, and improve per-member-per-month (PMPM) cost through earlier risk detection and bilingual engagement.
