Speakers: Dr. Sean Blackwell (interviewer, Dr. Sarah Horvath)

Recorded: February 2020

Women at high risk for maternal mortality and morbidity have unique needs for reproductive health services, including contraception and abortion. However, barriers such as state legislation, access to trained providers, and challenges in assessing and communicating risk often make it difficult for these women to obtain needed services. Join Drs. Sean Blackwell and Sarah Horvath as they discuss the impetus for and key findings in the recently released publication “Reproductive Services for Women at High Risk for Maternal Mortality: a report of the workshop of the Society for Maternal-Fetal Medicine, American College of Obstetricians and Gynecologists, the Fellowship in Family Planning, and the Society of Family Planning”
