Parents benefit from virtual group prenatal care, study suggests

Summary

The article discusses a Kaiser Permanente study that evaluated the effectiveness of a multimodal prenatal care model combining virtual group sessions with in-person visits. This approach yielded comparable or better outcomes than traditional individual care. The key concept of epidemiology is linked through the study's exploration of health outcomes and care models within healthcare contexts in California and Colorado, involving prenatal care, Kaiser Permanente, and Medi-Cal programs.
