This bill amends the Public Health Service Act to authorize the Secretary of Health and Human Services to conduct or support research on the impacts of traumatic birth experiences and post-traumatic stress disorder . This research will examine how these experiences affect short- and long-term maternal mental health, the broader impacts on mothers, infants, and families, and the relationship with severe maternal morbidity. Findings from this research must be disaggregated by race and ethnicity to identify potential disparities. Additionally, the bill establishes a pilot program to award grants for research into how midwife-driven care models influence traumatic birth experiences and maternal mental health outcomes compared to traditional medical care models. The bill authorizes $1,000,000 for the main research for fiscal years 2027 through 2031 and necessary sums for the pilot program from 2026 through 2030. The Secretary is required to submit interim and final reports to Congress on both the authorized research and the pilot project by the end of fiscal years 2028 and 2030, respectively.
