What is the Maternal Infant Health Program  (MIHP)?

baby 

MIHP is a program for all Michigan women with Medicaid health insurance who are pregnant and all infants with Medicaid. It is a benefit of their insurance.  MIHP provides support to promote healthy pregnancies, good birth outcomes, and healthy infants.

Throughout the state, MIHPs are administered in rural and urban communities through federally qualified health centers, hospital based clinics and private providers as  well as through local and regional public health departments. Services include:

·         Maternal and infant health, psychosocial and nutrition assessment completed by nurse, social worker, or nutritionist

·         Registered Nurse, Licensed Social Worker and Registered Dietician team development of beneficiary care plans

·         Coordination of MIHP services with the beneficiary's medical care provider and Medicaid Health Plan (who assist and supplement that care)

·         Registered Nurse, Licensed Social Worker and Registered Dietitian home or office visits provided with interventions based on the beneficiary's plan of care

·         Transportation services arranged if needed

·         Referrals are made to local community services  (e.g., mental health, substance abuse, domestic violence, basic needs assistance) as needed

·         Referral to local childbirth education or parenting classes
