Alternative Birthing Options in Health Care Reform

Hey Feministing Community!

I'm trying to find some information on how midwifery and other alternative birthing options are treated in all the health care reform bills, but finding comparisons about this topic is proving difficult.

Anyone know of any resources that could be useful?

Thanks!

Not too sure whether anyone has laid out different proposals in something as clear as "Column A, Column B, etc." but I recommend contacting the Big Push for Midwives (http://www.thebigpushformidwives.org/), Citizens for Midwifery (http://cfmidwifery.org), and the American Association of Birth Centers (http://www.birthcenters.org/) since they have very active legislative campaigns.

Good luck!

Check out the documentary "The business of giving birth" as well. Watched it in a class and it was really informative.

thanks for the tips!
