Doulas provide vital support during pregnancy, childbirth, and postpartum care. Healthix’s new guide helps reduce administrative barriers with step-by-step guidance on New York State Medicaid enrollment, billing, and reimbursement, plus checklists and official resources, so doulas can focus on families.
Improving maternal and infant health is a Healthix priority. Through our Maternal and Infant Health Equity Collaborative (MIHEC), we bring healthcare providers, community organizations, and other partners together to address disparities, connect families to essential services, and improve outcomes for mothers and babies. This guide puts that collaboration into action by supporting doulas as essential partners in maternal care.
