On March 23, 2026, the New Jersey Assembly passed Assembly Bill A948, which would require the New Jersey Department of Health to conduct a comprehensive survey and analysis of antenatal and prenatal care clinics throughout the State. The survey would evaluate the effectiveness and availability of maternity, antenatal, and prenatal care services, including data from clinics that have closed or substantially ceased operations within the two-year period prior to the effective date of the Bill. Data collected through the survey would be used to identify local and Statewide trends and disparities in care and to develop programs, resources, and strategies to improve access to and the quality of prenatal care services.
