Some of the many ways Pomelo supports families

Patient testimonials

"I’m not exaggerating when I say the Pomelo Care team got me through the hardest times of pregnancy, feeding my newborn, and postpartum in general. They educated me about what questions to ask my OB. And helped me push back when something didn’t feel right."

"There is not enough support for moms in the U.S., and Pomelo is helping fix that. I wish every new mom, or even second- or third-time mom, would have a group like this supporting them 24 hours a day."

FAQ

Who is eligible?

Amerigroup members who are currently pregnant or have a new baby are eligible for this program.

What if I already have an OB-GYN or midwife?

Pomelo won’t replace your in-person provider, but is here to support your family between visits. Your Pomelo care team will work with your OB or midwife to ensure they are updated on the care you’re receiving from Pomelo. If you don't have an in-person OB or midwife already, Pomelo can help you find one that meets your needs.

How much will it cost?

Amerigroup members receive these services through their health insurance so there is no out of pocket cost.
