New Nemours Brief: Using Pay for Success Financing to Improve Maternal and Infant Outcomes in Medicaid

February 25, 2020 by Janet Viveiros

Disclaimer: Moving Health Care Upstream is a collaborative effort originally co-led by Nemours Children’s Health System (Nemours) and the Center for Healthier Children, Families & Communities at the University of California- Los Angeles (UCLA). The views and opinions expressed in this article are those of the author(s) and do not necessarily reflect the official policy or position of Nemours, UCLA or the Moving Health Care Upstream initiative.


Nemours is excited to release its new “Washington State’s Effort to Improve Maternal and Infant Outcomes in Medicaid Using Pay for Success Financing” brief.

The Washington Health Care Authority, the agency that oversees the state’s Medicaid program, has been exploring using pay for success financing, an impact investment strategy, to make a decision about whether to expand services in Medicaid that would improve maternal and infant outcomes. This case study highlights the key accelerators and barriers that Washington has confronted as it determines whether it should move forward with pay for success financing to pilot and determine the return on investment of group prenatal care services for its Medicaid recipients.

If you have questions, please feel free to contact Janet Viveiros, Program and Policy Associate at Nemours, at [email protected].
