Maternity care deserts are spreading across nearly every state, leaving moms and babies without access to essential childbirth services — and the situation is worsening as Medicaid cuts threaten to deepen the crisis. With Medicaid covering over 40% of all births nationwide — nearly half in rural areas — these cuts directly endanger vulnerable communities, creating ripple effects of fear and poor health outcomes.
