Hello all!

Please see information below (and attached) from the Waukesha County Breastfeeding Coalition regarding the proposed 12 month postpartum Medicaid extension.

Dr. Kathy Hartke spoke at the WCBFC Membership Meeting last week about a time sensitive, advocacy measure to support proposed legislation extending Medicaid coverage for postpartum women. Please see the forwarded email below and attachments shared by Dr. Hartke regarding the proposed Medicaid extension.  For our ease, a sample letter is attached that may be edited and shared with your legislators. Please refer to the link below to identify who your legislator is.  For more information about the subject please see the attached White Paper and the ACOG Position Paper.  Your time and reflection on this subject is much appreciated.
