Experiences with prenatal care delivery reported by black patients with low income and by health care workers

JAMA Network

About The Study: In this qualitative study of low-income, Black pregnant people in Detroit and the health care workers who care for them, prenatal care delivery failed to meet many patients' needs. Participants reported that an ideal care delivery model would include comprehensive, integrated services across the health care system, expanding beyond medical care to also include patients' social needs and preferences.
