Poor women of all races and ages were twice as likely to receive no or late prenatal care. If the United States is to address our serious infant mortality problem. we must provide better access to prenatal care for women and primary health care for women and children who have low income or who live in areas without an adequate supply of health professionals. Community and migrant health centers were established to meet the health care needs of people who are poor. without insurance. and living in underserved areas. This bill provides a onetime increase in funding for community and migrant health centers to improve their ability to care for additional children and women in those areas. This bill contains language to assure that any additional funds go toward providing health services to reduce infant mortality. This bill addresses the basic health care needs of women and children. and can make an important difference in our fight against infant mortality.
