Centering Pregnancy
Centering Pregnancy is innovative, group-based prenatal care.
Based on the Centering model, which combines facilitated, group-based medical appointments with health assessments, interactive learning and community building, Centering Pregnancy provides group prenatal care which consists of:
- A group visit of 8-10 birthing people due around the same time
- Participants of different ages, races, and socioeconomic backgrounds
- Visits that are 90-120 minutes, giving pregnant people 10x more time with their provider
- One-on-one time with the provider for a belly and baby check
- Assessment training for participants to learn how to record some of their own health data
- Facilitated “circle-up” discussions and activities
- Centering curriculum and materials that include everything from nutrition, common discomforts, stress management, labor and delivery, breastfeeding and infant care are covered
- Lasting community relationships
Why Centering Pregnancy Works
Centering Pregnancy changes the way people receive their prenatal care. Centering disrupts inequitable systems, improves experiences and improves health outcomes.
Benefits of Centering Pregnancy
- Patients are empowered to actively take part in their healthcare, experience higher quality care and benefit from better overall health outcomes.
- Ninety-to-120-minute group care medical visits alleviate the burden placed on clinical providers to deliver care in a fast-paced, high volume system. Centering visits give patients the opportunity to be heard and clinical providers the chance to listen and evaluate their patients’ needs.
- Patient-provider relationships are strengthened outside of the exam room leading to increased patient and provider satisfaction rates.
- Patients, healthcare administrators and insurance payors can experience cost savings due to improved health outcomes and potential enhanced reimbursements.
Evidence-Based Findings
- Reduced risk of preterm birth by 33-47%
- Increased breastfeeding initiation
- Reduced risk of NICU admissions by 37$
- Reduced emergency room utilization
