With maternity care representing one of the most common and costly medical interventions that women experience, the Kaiser Family Foundation and the March of Dimes co-host a forum for the release of new studies that analyze the costs of maternity care and assess coverage under consumer-driven health plans. The Foundation releases a study that compares the out-of-pocket costs of pregnancy under CDHPs and traditional health insurance plans. The March of Dimes releases a new study prepared by Thomson Healthcare that examines the overall costs of having a baby.
