7.31.26 – Nearly half of New Mexico counties don't have a birthing facility. And as four more maternal centers are set to close this year, a new program from Project ECHO is meant to help those communities with expected parents in-need. Senior Producer Lou DiVizio spoke with Dr. Trevor Quiner, a maternal and fetal medicine specialist and co-director with Project ECHO, about how their program is trying to bridge the state’s gaps in access to maternal health care.
