HR 4074

The Optimizing Postpartum Outcomes Act of 2025 aims to improve healthcare for women during and after pregnancy. It directs the Centers for Medicare & Medicaid Services (CMS) to provide guidance to states on covering pelvic health services, like pelvic floor exams and physical therapy, under Medicaid and CHIP. The bill also tasks the Government Accountability Office (GAO) with studying gaps in coverage and mandates a public education campaign to inform both healthcare professionals and postpartum women about these important services.
