Our industry-leading expertise improves maternal and infant health for normal, moderate risk, and high-risk pregnancies, as well as for complex NICU births and postpartum issues.

A focused, high-touch program that delivers:

Maternity & NICU Case Management
- Maternity Case Management – ProgenyHealth Case Managers work with families through the milestones of maternal care – from conception and pregnancy to postpartum and parenting.
- NICU Case Management – In the event of a NICU admission, our NICU Case Managers support discharge planning, screen for postpartum depression, and provide education and clinical support. Importantly, they also identify and solve Social Determinants of Health. Our proprietary care management platform guides our case management teams and aligns their efforts.

NICU Utilization Management
- Proprietary Data Platform – Data intelligence captured by our proprietary platform, Baby Trax®, leverages nearly 20 years of clinical experience to support clinical decisions and deliver the best outcomes.
- Optimizing Quality Outcomes – By standardizing care management and reducing variations in care, ProgenyHealth drives optimal quality outcomes and ensures appropriate lengths of stay and levels of care to reduce inpatient costs, physician fees, emergency department visits, and unnecessary readmissions.

NICU Payment Validation & Assurance
- Maximizing value – Our Payment Validation & Assurance program helps prevent inaccurate payments and maximizes value from our UM services. We review claims against clinical authorizations, identify variances between approved days and levels of care, and confirm codes that may impact reimbursement.
- Accurate Coding – ProgenyHealth identifies billing inaccuracies, analyzes coding, and reduces waste in the payment process.
We’re transforming healthcare for women and infants.
By standardizing care management, solving SDoH challenges, reducing variations in care, and empowering families, we drive optimum quality outcomes at lower costs. We also ensure appropriate lengths of stay and levels of care should a NICU event occur — ultimately reducing inpatient costs, physician fees, emergency department visits, and readmissions.
