Mercy Rockford Health System issued the following announcement on Sept. 23.
Yesterday, Mercyhealth and Molina Healthcare hosted a free community baby shower at Mercyhealth’s Javon Bea Hospital–Rockton. Hundreds of new and expectant moms received baby care essentials such as diapers, wipes, baby lotion, diaper rash cream, face masks, soap and more.
“It is our privilege to offer free baby supplies to expecting parents with our friends at Molina Healthcare,” said Jenni Wolf, director of perinatal and neonatal services at Mercyhealth. “This event supports our state-designated children’s hospital at Riverside, including our new labor and delivery and mom/baby rooms as well as the most experienced and advanced Level III NICU in the Rockford region.”
In June 2020, Mercyhealth announced an agreement with Molina Healthcare to serve Medicaid members in the northern Illinois region. This means, Mercyhealth Illinois Medicaid patients who have Molina Healthcare insurance will continue to have full in-network access to its integrated hospitals, physicians and services including specialty pediatric and obstetric services, primary care and adult services.
