Implements Blue Band Program to address preeclampsia in New Jersey.

This bill establishes New Jersey's Blue Band Program to reduce preventable pregnancy complications from preeclampsia, a condition involving high blood pressure during pregnancy that can lead to serious health risks for mothers and babies. The program provides free blue wristbands to pregnant and postpartum individuals identified as at-risk for preeclampsia, creating a visible alert for healthcare providers across all care settings. Hospitals and federally qualified health centers can voluntarily join the program, with the state providing training materials, distribution guidelines, and a list of approved wristband vendors. The Office of Maternal and Child Health will track participation and report annually on facility adoption and impacts on maternal mortality rates. This initiative aims to improve care coordination and prevent complications without requiring new funding or changing existing medical protocols.
