The proposed bill aims to establish the Maternal Outcomes Management System within the Arkansas Department of Health to address the state's high maternal mortality rate, which is significantly above the national average. The bill outlines the creation of a comprehensive statewide system that will organize maternal health resources, educate both providers and patients, incentivize best practices, and collect critical data to improve maternal health outcomes. Key components of the system include a grant program for birthing and delivery hospitals, a call center named "MOMS Care Connect" for coordinating care, and a "Postpartum Support Hotline" to provide follow-up support to mothers after delivery.

To implement this system, the bill introduces several new provisions, including the establishment of a designation system for hospitals based on their capability to provide clinical care for pregnant women, and requirements for hospitals to engage in community outreach, clinician education, and peer review of complications. The Department of Health is tasked with maintaining a website that provides essential maternal health information and resources, as well as developing a platform for structured peer review among hospitals. The bill emphasizes the importance of ensuring that every mother has access to necessary resources and care, with the activities contingent upon available funding.
