We have another surprise... and this is a big one. š¤
We are officially accepting WellCare/Carolina Complete Health (transitioning to Carolina Complete Health on April 1) for birth doula services!
This has been a long time coming. Access to doula care is one of the biggest gaps we see every single day with huge impacts to perinatal education, support, informed consent and breastfeeding successāespecially for families navigating Medicaid.
And we know what happens when that gap is filled:
⢠Lower cesarean rates
⢠Fewer preterm births
⢠Better breastfeeding outcomes
⢠More supported, empowered birth experiences
⢠Lower rates of postpartum depression and anxiety
Continuous, relationship-based support changes outcomesānot just physically, but emotionally. Being seen, heard, and supported through pregnancy and birth has a real impact on maternal mental health. It reduces stress, builds confidence, and helps families feel less alone during one of the most vulnerable times in their lives.
For Medicaid families, the impact is even deeperāfewer interventions, fewer complications, and better overall outcomes for both parent and baby, regardless of income.
This matters here. In our mountains. In our communities.
If you currently have WellCare (soon-to-be Carolina Complete Health) and youāre pregnant, you can now access doula support through your insurance.
No more "I can't afford a doula." No more wishing. No out-of-pocket barrier. Just support.
Reach out to us for more details on how to get everything set upāweāll walk you through it. š¤
