Description
Sugy Choi and co-authors lay out a study of drug testing around childbirth in New York State. Overdose deaths among pregnant and new mothers have climbed, worst in the late thirties and early forties. How hospitals test, and whether testing links women to care or drives them off, is poorly mapped. Their 2025 protocol runs on three aims. Medicaid claims from 2021 to 2024 feed models of who gets tested and how hospitals vary.
Interviews with administrators and clinicians document the policies behind the numbers. Focus groups with people who lived the experience then shape the recommendations. A health disparities framework guides the whole design. The team aims at policy that protects infants without breaking trust with mothers.
