Summary

The proposed policy changes establish coverage and reimbursement methodologies for birthing centers and licensed midwives. They allow coverage of birthing center and licensed midwives’ services for normal, uncomplicated, low-risk births. Birthing centers must be accredited by the Commission for the Accreditation of Birth Centers (CABC). Licensed midwives must be Certified Midwives or Certified Professional Midwives and be licensed by the Oklahoma State Department of Health (OSDH) to provide midwifery services. Birthing centers will be reimbursed a facility charge determined by the Ambulatory Payment Classification (APC) fee schedule. Licensed midwives will be reimbursed 80% of the physician fee scheduled for services within their scope of practice as defined by state law.
