For Payers
Pregnancy care needs innovation, Nuvo delivers.
For payers & health systems
Pregnancy care today is straining mothers, their families and their providers, while putting an enormous cost burden on payers.
I’m excited to be able to offer INVU to our patients to reduce some of that burden, help address geographic and socioeconomic inequities, and enable us to maintain high quality care.

The problem
Troubling Trends in Pregnancy Care Around Cost, Outcomes, and Access to Care.
Cost
$110B+in U.S. overall prenatal and neonatal care spending3, and growing 3% YoY3
20%of employer healthcare is for perinatal care annually
Outcomes
52ndU.S. ranking in global infant mortality rates
32%increase in the number of women experiencing both pregnancy and childbirth complications
Easy to use
50%of U.S. counties do not have a practicing OB2
60%of (maternal) deaths could have been prevented if mothers had been able to more easily access quality prenatal and postpartum care
Nuvo can help address:
- Reduction in OB-ED visits - see more on this below
- Reduced admissions (prenatal and postpartum)
- Reduction in NICU admissions
- Reduced extended hospitalization
- Increased compliance with prenatal visits, particularly NST’s
Remote triage
Cut in OB-ED Visits via Remote Triage for Fetal Movement
Many OB-ED visits are due to decreased fetal movement or patients that haven’t felt their baby move for an extended period of time. Nuvo has demonstrated the ability to reduce OB-ED visits by enabling clinicians to remotely triage patients before making the trip to the OB-ED.
One Nuvo customer has reported that 100% of patients who experienced decreased fetal movement were able to avoid a potential trip to the OB-ED by undergoing NST triage from home instead.

Reimbursement
Payers are reimbursing under existing CPT code 59025 for NST’s
In the interest of expanding access to care and improving member outcomes, we are writing today to confirm that CPT Code 59025 is reimbursable with a place of service modifier (12) for at-home monitoring with remote monitoring solutions that are FDA cleared for on-label use for monitoring fetal heart rate (FHR), maternal heart rate (MHR), and Uterine Activity (UA).
