Our approach

Support for you and your baby

We're here to answer your questions like "How do I control my diabetes during pregnancy?" or "Is my baby eating enough?" There’s no question too big or small.

A care team you can count on

Our doctors, nurses, and other specialists take the time to listen to you and support your goals.

Care anytime and anywhere

We're a doctor's office available 24/7 through your phone. Text, call, or video chat with your team day or night. No more waiting rooms!

Activate your benefit

Dedicated care teams

Unlimited access to a team of doctors, midwives, nurses, dietitians, therapists, lactation experts, and more. You’ll keep your in-person OB provider, but your Pomelo team is here for you between appointments (or whenever you need us!).

Customized care plans

We work with you to create a customized care plan, whether it’s meeting with our dietitian, joining a virtual group with other expecting parents, or getting 1:1 support for gestational diabetes.

24/7 availability

No more rushed appointments or waiting rooms. Meet and message with your care team anytime (including nights and weekends!) via text, phone, or video.

Patient testimonials

5 star rating
"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, from questioning my iron levels during pregnancy to making an informed decision about an early induction."

5 star rating
"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?

Wellpoint and Wellpoint Medicaid members who are pregnant or have a baby under 1 year old 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?

Wellpoint TN and TX members receive these services through their health insurance so there is no out of pocket cost.

Is this program available in Spanish?

Yes, the Pomelo Care team includes a number of bilingual English/Spanish speakers. We are also able to support a number of other languages through a translation service. Contact us and let us know your language preferences.
