Patients insured by Medicaid are less likely to get prenatal diagnosis of heart defects than those with private insurance, and this disparity can be partly attributed to lower rates of 20-week ultrasound in pregnant people with public insurance, according to a study led by Ann & Robert H. Lurie Children’s Hospital of Chicago in collaboration with Advocate Christ Children’s Hospital. The study was published in the journal Prenatal Diagnosis.
