Early and continual prenatal care plays an important role in ensuring a healthy baby. Many studies show that women who receive more care during pregnancy are most likely to deliver healthy babies. The New Arrivals program is here to help Medicaid eligible women receive good prenatal care. Regardless of past experiences, each pregnancy is different and requires early and special care. If you are not receiving care from an obstetrician, physician, or prenatal clinic, and are Medicaid-eligible, the New Arrivals coordinator can provide you with a list of local physicians and clinics. Other services available through the New Arrivals program include: Assistance with transportation (when necessary), Assistance with making medical appointments, Accompanying the pregnant mother to appointments, Referrals to other community social services, such as WIC. If you are eligible for the program, the coordinator will contact you by letter or visit your home to explain the services available through the program and through the community. You also may schedule an office visit to discuss your needs. If you are eligible for Healthchek services through Medicaid, we will contact you and arrange for services.
