Women's & Children's Health

Delivering services across the entire continuum of maternal-newborn care, Alere empowers women to make better choices – choices that enable them to experience successful pregnancies. Alere's programs span services from preconception, risk-assessment and education (to identify pregnant women at risk for complications) to homecare services, to postpartum depression screening. We have the nation's leading neonatal program (NICU Care Management Program) for early infant care management and a first year of life program.

With unparalleled experience in home obstetrical management, Alere has provided homecare services nationally since 1984 with a total commitment to high-risk pregnancy management.

“Prolonged gestation is critical in controlling costs. An infant delivered at 26 weeks can cost 4x that of one at 30 weeks.”
