Comparing postpartum care extensions

Iowa has not extended postpartum Medicaid coverage as of June 20, 2023, while most neighboring states have.

Note: The Nebraska Legislature has approved a 6-month extension, but the law leaves the final decision to extend the care to 12 months to the Nebraska Department of Health and Human Services. "The Wisconsin Legislature passed an extension of up to 90 days, and is submitting a waiver to the federal government to ask for this modification.
