Health care delivery for pregnant women at high risk is changing in response to the nation's need to contain costs and improve care. Perinatal nurse practitioners can provide specialized care to women at high risk in a wide variety of settings. They provide quality, cost-effective care and can improve access to prenatal care for families at risk for untoward pregnancy outcomes.
