FEDERAL POLICY: WE CONTINUED TO PROVIDE DIRECT SUPPORT TO THE FEDERAL MATERNAL MENTAL HEALTH TASK FORCE, WHICH THE POLICY CENTER CHAMPIONED IN 2023 THROUGH FEDERAL LEGISLATION WE WROTE AND ADVANCED: THE TRIUMPH FOR NEW MOMS ACT. AS A RESULT OF THIS WORK, THE FIRST REPORT TO CONGRESS ON MATERNAL MENTAL HEALTH AND THE FIRST NATIONAL STRATEGY WERE RELEASED IN 2024 AND 2025, RESPECTIVELY. IN 2025, AS THE FEDERAL TASK FORCE CONCLUDED, WE CONVENED FORMER MEMBERS TO ORGANIZE THE FIELD AROUND KEY PRIORITIES WITHIN THE NATIONAL MATERNAL MENTAL HEALTH STRATEGY. KEY PRIORITIES WE ARE FACILITATING INCLUDE OB/GYN SCREENING AND MEASUREMENT OF SCREENING, SUICIDE PREVENTION, AFFORDABLE MATERNITY CARE, AND COMPREHENSIVE MATERNITY CARE CENTERS (CMCCS), INCLUDING MIDWIFERY, MENTAL HEALTH, DOULA CARE, AND PEDIATRICS. EACH OF THESE PRIORITIES INCLUDES PHILANTHROPIC AND FEDERAL POLICY SOLUTIONS. WE KEPT MATERNAL MENTAL HEALTH ON THE MINDS OF LEADERS AT FEDERAL AGENCIES BY MEETING WITH THEM REGULARLY, INCLUDING THE CENTERS FOR MEDICAID AND MEDICARE SERVICES (CMS), THE CENTERS FOR DISEASE CONTROL (CDC), THE HEALTH RESOURCES AND SERVICES ADMINISTRATION (HRSA), THE SUBSTANCE ABUSE AND MENTAL HEALTH SERVICES ADMINISTRATION (SAMHSA), AND THE NATIONAL INSTITUTES OF HEALTH (NIH). IN ADDITION, WE BEGAN ENGAGING THE NEW FEDERAL ADMINISTRATION WITH AN OVERVIEW OF HOW THE MAKE AMERICA HEALTHY AGAIN AGENDA CAN SUPPORT MATERNAL MENTAL HEALTH. WE CONDUCTED 19 FEDERAL POLICY ANALYSES REACHING MORE THAN 15,000 READERS ON TOPICS INCLUDING TECHNOLOGY, MATERNAL SUICIDE DATA, AND REIMBURSEMENT. WE WROTE FOUR LETTERS TO SHARE OUR RECOMMENDATIONS AND POLICY PRIORITIES (TOPICS INCLUDED PAID LEAVE, SCREENING RATE REPORTING, AND MATERNAL HEALTH DATASETS) WITH KEY FEDERAL LEADERS (INCLUDING THE MMH TASK FORCE, CONGRESSIONAL WORKING GROUPS, AND NATIONAL COMMITTEE FOR QUALITY ASSURANCE (NCQA) ABOUT NECESSARY CHANGES TO THE MEASURE TO REPORT MMH SCREENING AND FOLLOW-UP CARE. WE ALSO SUPPORTED PARTNER NONPROFITS' POLICY WORK THAT WAS ALIGNED WITH THIS AGENDA BY SIGNING ON TO 31 LETTERS. POLICY EVENTS: IN MAY, MATERNAL MENTAL HEALTH AWARENESS MONTH, WE UNVEILED OUR ANNUAL STATE REPORT CARDS DURING A VIRTUAL BRIEFING WHERE MEMBERS OF CONGRESS AND STATE LEADERS WERE BRIEFED ON THE MEASURES AND STATE GRADES. IN SEPTEMBER, THE POLICY CENTER HOSTED A CONGRESSIONAL RECEPTION ON MATERNAL SUICIDE PREVENTION AND PROGRESS MADE TO ADDRESS MATERNAL MENTAL HEALTH OVER THE PAST 10 YEARS. THE CONVENING ATTRACTED 75+ LEADERS FROM CONGRESS, FEDERAL AGENCIES (INCLUDING SAMHSA, CDC, NIH, AND CMS), AND NATIONAL NON-PROFIT PARTNER ORGANIZATIONS IN PERSON ON CAPITOL HILL. WE PRESENTED THE LATEST CDC DATA, HAD A FATHER SHARE HIS PERSONAL STORY ABOUT LOSING HIS WIFE TO MATERNAL SUICIDE, AND EXPLORED THE MULTIPRONGED AND COMPLEX SOLUTIONS TO PREVENT MATERNAL SUICIDE - A LEADING CAUSE OF PREGNANCY-RELATED MATERNAL MORTALITY IN THE U.S. STATE POLICY: THE POLICY CENTER IS ALSO KNOWN AS THE EXPERT IN STATE POLICY, WHICH IS WHERE MOST HEALTHCARE LEGISLATION AND REGULATION OCCURS UNDER THE U.S. FEDERALISM FRAMEWORK. THIS INCLUDED OUR STATE NON-PROFIT AND GOVERNMENT AGENCY POLICY FELLOWS TRAINING AND TECHNICAL ASSISTANCE PROGRAMS, MAINTAINING AND PROMOTING OUR MODEL LEGISLATION, TRACKING STATE MATERNAL MENTAL HEALTH LEGISLATION, AND SUMMARIZING LEGISLATION IN AN ANNUAL REPORT. WE CONTINUED TO RUN OUR TWO STATE POLICY FELLOWS PROGRAMS (FOR NON-PROFITS AND GOVERNMENT AGENCIES) TO SHARE DATA, HEAR FROM EXPERTS ABOUT PROGRAMS AND POLICIES THAT ARE WORKING, AND ALLOW PARTICIPANTS TO LEARN AND SHARE IN A 12-MONTH LEARNING COMMUNITY. THE 2024-2025 COHORT GRADUATING CLASS INCLUDED 31 PARTICIPANTS FROM THE FOLLOWING STATES AND TERRITORIES: CALIFORNIA, CONNECTICUT, GEORGIA, KENTUCKY, LOUISIANA, MARYLAND, MISSOURI, NEBRASKA, NEW JERSEY, OREGON, SOUTH CAROLINA, TENNESSEE, AND VERMONT. WE PROVIDE ONGOING TECHNICAL ASSISTANCE TO FELLOWS WHO GRADUATE FROM THE PROGRAM. 127742 0 0 MONITORING SCREENING AND REIMBURSEMENT: THE POLICY CENTER RESEARCHES, REPORTS ON, AND PUSHES FOR THE IMPLEMENTATION OF ONGOING LEVERS TO ADVANCE MATERNAL MENTAL HEALTH (MMH) SYSTEMS CHANGE, INCLUDING PAYMENT AND SCREENING/TREATMENT MEASURES. AS PART OF OUR WORK ON HEALTH INSURER PAYOR LEVERS, WE REPORT REGULARLY ON MMH SCREENING AND FOLLOW-UP RATES BY ANALYZING HEDIS DATA (A STANDARDIZED SET OF PERFORMANCE MEASURES DEVELOPED BY THE NCQA) AS WELL AS CLAIMS DATA. THE REPORTS AND THE STATE REPORT CARDS REFERENCED BELOW ARE AVAILABLE ON OUR WEBSITE, WWW.POLICYCENTERMMH.ORG/REPORTS. OUR ANALYSIS, "THE ROLE OF MEDICAID IN ADVANCING OBSTETRIC PROVIDER MATERNAL MENTAL HEALTH SCREENING AND TREATMENT," HIGHLIGHTED THE ACTIONS MEDICAID AGENCIES CAN TAKE TO ADDRESS SCREENING, INCLUDING THE STRATEGIES OF THE STATES WITH THE HIGHEST MEDICAID SCREENING RATES. WE EVALUATED THE EXTENT TO WHICH OB PROVIDERS SUBMIT SEPARATE CLAIMS TO PRIVATE INSURERS FOR MMH SCREENING AND FOLLOW-UP TREATMENT, OUTSIDE THE "BUNDLED OBSTETRIC PAYMENT." THIS IS CONTAINED IN OUR NEW REPORT TITLED "OBSTETRIC PROVIDER BILLING RATES BY PRIVATE INSURERS FOR MATERNAL MENTAL HEALTH SCREENING AND TREATMENT." THIS ANALYSIS OF CLAIMS DATA SHOWED PERSISTENTLY LOW BILLING RATES BY OBSTETRIC PROVIDERS FOR MMH SCREENING, EVALUATION, AND TREATMENT, HIGHLIGHTING THE NEED FOR INSURERS TO PUBLISH MMH FEE-FOR-SERVICE BILLING CODES FOR OBSTETRIC PROVIDERS AND TO PROVIDE ADEQUATE REIMBURSEMENT. WE ALSO ASSESSED STATE-SPECIFIC RATES AND FOUND THAT THE STATES WITH THE HIGHEST NUMBER OF PRIVATE INSURANCE CLAIM SUBMISSIONS FOR POSTPARTUM MMH SCREENING ARE COLORADO, NORTH CAROLINA, WEST VIRGINIA, AND INDIANA. THE SCREENING RATES AND PRIVATE CLAIMS SUBMISSION RATES ARE ALSO BOTH MEASURES IN OUR ANNUAL STATE MATERNAL MENTAL HEALTH REPORT CARDS. THIS WORK IS ADVANCING UNIVERSAL SCREENING EFFORTS BY DRAWING ATTENTION TO BILLING AND SCREENING RATES NATIONWIDE, WITH THE REPORTS AND RESOURCES SERVING TO INFORM POLICY ACTION AT THE STATE LEVEL. 112054 0 162997 RESEARCH, REPORTS, RESOURCES & THE FORUM: AS A POLICY AND RESEARCH THINK TANK, AND "FIELD CATALYST" WE CONDUCT CRITICAL RESEARCH, COLLATE ARTICLES AND EXTERNAL RESEARCH, CREATE ISSUE BRIEFS, IMPLEMENTATION RESOURCES AND TECHNICAL ASSISTANCE, AND HOST WEBINARS AND OUR ANNUAL CONFERENCE, THE FORUM, TO INFORM THE FIELD INCLUDING THE FOUR KEY PLAYERS (WHICH WE REFER TO AS THE 4PS) WHICH ARE POSITIONED TO AFFECTUATE CHANGE (POLICYMAKERS, PAYERS, PROVIDERS AND PHILANTHROPY/NON-PROFIT/RESEARCH PARTNERS). RESEARCH AND REPORTS: IN MAY, WHICH IS MATERNAL MENTAL HEALTH AWARENESS MONTH, THE POLICY CENTER RELEASED OUR TWO LANDMARK REPORTS, THE 3RD ANNUAL STATE REPORT MATERNAL MENTAL HEALTH CARDS, AND THE MATERNAL MENTAL HEALTH COUNTY RISK & RESOURCE REPORT AND MAP. AT OUR CONGRESSIONAL BRIEFING. THE REPORT CARDS AGAIN RELIED ON 18 DATA SETS, INCLUDING DATA PRODUCED EXTERNALLY AND OUR OWN DATA/REPORTS. THERE HAS STILL BEEN MEANINGFUL PROGRESS AS 26 STATES IMPROVED THEIR MMH GRADES (AND THE U.S. HAS INCHED UP FROM A D+ TO C-). THE RISK AND RESOURCE REPORT IDENTIFIED THAT THE NUMBER OF COUNTIES WITH SEVERE RISK FOR MMH DISORDERS HAS TRIPLED SINCE 2023. THE REPORTS WERE FEATURED IN VARIOUS LOCAL AND NATIONAL NEWS OUTLETS AND HAVE BEEN INSTRUMENTAL IN RAISING AWARENESS OF MATERNAL MENTAL HEALTH AND POINTING THE WAY TOWARD AN EVIDENCE-BASED PATH FORWARD. OUR REPORTS WERE COVERED BY MAJOR MEDIA OUTLETS SUCH AS THE NEW YORK TIMES, FORBES, USA TODAY, CBS, AND KFF HEALTH NEWS. THIS YEAR WE CONTINUED TO DEVELOP DATA-DRIVEN, ACTIONABLE INSIGHTS THROUGH NEARLY 30 ARTICLES, REPORTS, FACT SHEETS, AND ISSUE BRIEFS, INCLUDING NEW MATERIALS SUCH AS THE LATINA AND HISPANIC MATERNAL MENTAL HEALTH ISSUE BRIEF, A FACT SHEET ADDRESSING SUBSTANCE USE DISORDERS AND MATERNAL MENTAL HEALTH, AND AN ISSUE BRIEF ON THE INTERCONNECTION OF PAID FAMILY AND MEDICAL LEAVE AND MATERNAL MENTAL HEALTH. WE HOSTED THREE WEBINARS, ADDRESSING EATING DISORDERS IN THE PERINATAL PERIOD, BIRTH TRAUMA AND PTSD, AND THE ROLE OF HOSPITALS IN DEVELOPING MENTAL HEALTH OUTPATIENT AND INPATIENT TREATMENT PROGRAMS. THESE EVENTS SERVE TO EDUCATE KEY PLAYERS AND DRIVE ACTION ON PRESSING MATERNAL MENTAL HEALTH ISSUES. LASTLY, WE HELD OUR 15TH ANNUAL FORUM MARCH 18-19, 2025 IN WASHINGTON, DC, AND ATTRACTED NEARLY 700 CROSS-SECTOR PARTICIPANTS FROM ACROSS THE U.S. THE FORUM THEME WAS "AT THE INTERSECTION OF POLICY, PAYMENT, AND PRACTICE," WITH PARTICIPANTS ATTENDING TWO DAYS OF PROGRAMMING, INCLUDING A KEYNOTE, 11 PANELS, THREE FIRESIDE CHATS, TWO MOTHERS' STORIES, AND REGIONAL NETWORKING. THE FORUM AGAIN FEATURED HIGH-PROFILE SPEAKERS FROM ORGANIZATIONS SUCH AS THE KENNEDY FORUM, CLINTON GLOBAL INITIATIVE, URBAN INDIAN HEALTH INSTITUTE, KFF, NATIONAL PARTNERSHIP FOR WOMEN & FAMILIES, AND MORE. NINETY-SEVEN PERCENT OF ATTENDEES REPORTED THAT THE FORUM PROVIDED INSIGHT INTO EVIDENCE-BASED POLICY AND PRACTICE SOLUTIONS IN MATERNAL MENTAL HEALTH CARE. 370545 0 178347 OTHER PROGRAMS: GENERAL PROGRAMS, COMMUNITIES OF PRACTICE, CO-LABORATORY, CHW PROJECT. 370545 0 178347 802875 1 1 0 1 0 0 0 0 0 0 1 0 0 0 0 1 1 0 0 0 0 0 0 0 0 0 0 0 0 0 0 0 0 0 0 0 0 0 0 0 0 0 0 0 0 0 0 1 12 0 1 9 1 0 0 0 0 0 0 0 0 0 0 0 0 X 13 13 0 0 0 0 0 0 0 1 1 0 0 1 1 1 1 1 1 1 0 0 CA X X X EASY OFFICE DBA JITASA 2082874777 1120 S RACKHAM WAY MERIDIAN ID 83642 JOY BURKHARD EXECUTIVE DIRECTOR 40 X 131454 0 0 REBECCA BRITT DIRECTOR OF COMMUNICATIONS AND IMPACT 40 X 105107 0 2196 CARLA ECKHARDT TARACENA BOARD CHAIR 5 X X 0 0 0 JAIME CABRERA TREASURER 2 X X 0 0 0 DOMINIQUE GEORGE BOARD MEMBER 1 X 0 0 0 ROSANNA DURRUTHY BOARD MEMBER 1 X 0 0 0 BENJAMIN MILLER BOARD MEMBER 1 X 0 0 0 JENNIFER CHRISTIAN HERMAN BOARD MEMBER 1 X 0 0 0 BRITT NEWTON BOARD MEMBER 1 X 0 0 0 KATHRYN SANTORO BOARD MEMBER 1 X 0 0 0 SARA HOWARD BOARD MEMBER 1 X 0 0 0 CAROLE MENDOZA BOARD MENDOZA 1 X 0 0 0 RANA NABATI BOARD MEMBER 1 X 0 0 0 LEN NICHOLS BOARD MEMBER 1 X 0 0 0 CHRISTIAN WILLIAMS BOARD MEMBER 1 X 0 0 0 236561 0 2196 2 0 0 0 0 0 0 0 0 0 365503 0 365503 TRAINING REVENUE 900099 178347 178347 0 0 FORUM REVENUE 900099 162997 162997 0 0 0 0 0 0 341344 20140 0 0 20140 0 0 0 0 0 0 0 0 0 0 0 0 0 0 726987 341344 0 20140 X 126208 122668 3071 469 322797 313744 7854 1199 17396 13484 3912 34330 33520 678 132 19718 19718 229777 204390 18237 7150 452 400 52 26208 9394 16590 224 41462 36461 4962 39 54459 54315 144 4662 4662 2255 2255 2868 2868 UNCOLLECTABLE COVID RELATED CREDITS 17665 0 17665 0 PROGRAM EXPENSES 7582 7582 0 0 907839 802875 95751 9213 79570 175359 775788 832928 351679 49997 26300 32260 12710 10893 4072 1817 1237409 1092361 58985 119789 95000 70000 0 153985 189789 X 249775 325493 833649 577079 1083424 902572 1237409 1092361 X -180852 0 0 0 0 0 X 0 1 X 1 0 X 784998 1169592 755700 878724 365503 3954517 784998 1169592 755700 878724 365503 3954517 1657605 2296912 26737 20140 46877 360 66 1325 9528 11279 4012673 699354 0.57241 0.58084 X Schedule A, Part II, Line 10 OTHER RELATED REVENUE RESTRICTED RESTRICTED RESTRICTED RESTRICTED RESTRICTED RESTRICTED RESTRICTED RESTRICTED 871 1003 1874 905966 907840 161176 40294 0 0 180799 190581 146930 161176 679486 1019229 47582 51983 10875 1874 112314 45200 47645 36733 40294 169872 254808 9258 12450 8351 871 30930 0 0 0 0 0 0 0 0 0 0 0 0 12710 10893 1817 0 0 0 0 1817 0 0 X 726987 0 0 0 0 0 726987 0 0 0 726987 907839 0 0 0 0 0 907839 0 0 0 907839 Schedule D, Part X, Line 2 2020 MOM QUALIFIES AS A TAX-EXEMPT ORGANIZATION UNDER SECTION 501(c)(3) OF THE INTERNAL REVENUE CODE AND CALIFORNIA REVENUE AND TAXATION CODE SECTION 23701(d).
