Warner pushes bill to shield rural hospital obstetrics
U S Senator Mark Warner and 14 fellow Democrats unveil the Keep Obstetrics Local Act to curb closures of labor and delivery units in rural hospitals. The draft would raise Medicaid pay for obstetric services, add standby funding for low volume hospitals, create low volume adjustments, and extend 12 month postpartum Medicaid coverage, aiming to protect maternal care across Virginia and other states. The push cites multiple Virginia closures since 2018 and the loss of obstetric services at several facilities, affecting 267 communities.
