InovCares connects to the partners you already have rather than replacing them. Readings arrive as alerts, not reports; rides, groceries and prescriptions close the gaps that cause missed visits; and data writes back to your EHR.
Sherry Pace, CEO of Chicago Family Health Center, OB nurse Jodi Krmpotich and InovCares founder Mohamed Kamara on bringing virtual maternal care to six sites — free to patients, funded through Blue Cross and Blue Shield of Illinois.
Revenue follows volume: more prenatal and postpartum encounters kept, billed and documented. At New Horizon the OB/GYN department’s revenue peaked 47% above 2023 on the back of that volume, with 1,171 of those prenatal visits delivered there and 1,359 rides to them. Illinois enrollment: BCBSIL newsroom.

At Chicago Family Health Center, InovCares writes BP and glucose readings from the patient app directly into each Athena chart. Mental, metabolic and social care-gap assessments are added as a PDF for clinical review. NextGen integrations are supported with plan partners.
Home readings write into the patient’s chart as discrete values.
Care-gap assessments arrive as PDFs your clinicians can review in context.
Rides, groceries and prescriptions are logged as documented events.
The first question most practices ask is whether this adds work. Here is the honest division of labor, drawn from how the four partner sites actually run.
Over the 2024 reporting year, rides, telehealth consultations, prenatal vitamins, doula sessions, nutrition counseling, midwifery consultations and mental-health referrals ran alongside the clinic’s own care. Loss to care at New Horizon fell from 1.54% to 0.23%, with 98% of closed-loop referrals completed.
Patients qualify after 20 weeks of gestation with any of the following. Our service options follow ACOG Practice Bulletin No. 222, Gestational Hypertension and Preeclampsia (2020, reaffirmed 2026).
Your patients enroll through you, so the relationship and the record stay with your clinic.

Standardize the platform; localize the pathway. Each site brings a different population, risk signature and care team.
698 enrolled and 401 deliveries, in a predominantly Spanish-speaking community. Prenatal volume rose, and because those encounters were kept and documented, the OB/GYN department’s revenue rose with them, peaking 47% above 2023. Of the newborns delivered, 96.4% went to the regular nursery rather than the NICU.
356 enrolled, 203 deliveries. A Centering Pregnancy model and BCBSTX Special Beginnings® award, serving a community that speaks many primary languages. So far, 73% vaginal births.
124 enrolled since the February 2026 launch across six sites. Across the first 62 deliveries, the cesarean rate was 25.8% against 30.8% statewide, and 85.5% of delivered mothers reached postpartum care.
8 enrolled. A 501(c)(3), midwife-led birth center in Weslaco with 8,443 births since it opened, and the longest average journey to care anywhere in the program.
Delivery counts are the 2024–2026 reporting years and sum to the 666 published across the program. Each site serves a different population, with a different risk signature and a different care team — which is why culturally concordant care and a bilingual interface are design requirements here rather than features.
New Horizon serves a population that is 98% Hispanic and Spanish-speaking. HHM Health in Dallas is the opposite case — no ethnic group above 36%, patients speaking seven or more primary languages — and the delivery outcomes held.
Of 205 enrolled patients: 36% Hispanic, 33% Black, 17% White, 8% Asian, 4% non-Hispanic/Latino and 0.5% Indian. Average age 29. Nineteen percent were referred for mental health support. A culturally concordant care team here means a different team than in Brownsville — which is the point of building the model around the health center rather than around one language.
“It’s my first pregnancy and I have got immense support from InovCares till now. InovCares provided us with a digital blood pressure machine which has been a great device throughout my pregnancy. I could also schedule a session with my Doula and I am learning essentials about labor and delivery now.”
HHM Health women’s department, 2024–2025: 205 enrolled and 179 documented deliveries. The cesarean comparison is the Texas state average of 34.8%.

Two cases from the South Side, written up by the doula who carried them. Neither is a clinical intervention in the usual sense. Both are the reason the patient stayed in care.
Gabrielle was 12 weeks pregnant when her electricity was shut off over a $600 balance. The debt was forgiven, a $34/month subsidized rate put in place, and no prenatal appointments were missed through the crisis.
Read the case studyKeishla was reached through her My Tribes community at three months postpartum. By the second visit her language about herself had shifted toward self-compassion, with a weekly rhythm of care that held.

Nine named people — plan medical directors, health-center CEOs, the clinicians running it day to day and a mother who used it — have gone on the record, each quote linked to where it was said.
“He introduced the app to me, and I thought it was a no-brainer to be able to bring those benefits to this community.”
Jason Wallace · CEO, New Horizon Health Center, Brownsville, TX“InovCares has not only streamlined our clinic’s televisit remote monitoring operations, but it has also strengthened the bond between our healthcare team and our patients.”
Cathy Cornish, MS, APRN, WHNP-BC · HHM Health, Dallas, TX“Using the app it would be much easier for me to make my appointments, order my medications, to have a little more personal control of what’s going on with me and my baby.”
