Who We Are
We’re changing the trajectory of maternal and infant health across America – one family at a time
From humble beginnings managing NICU cases to a fully-integrated maternal and infant health approach, ProgenyHealth is proud to have supported hundreds of thousands of families.
Powered by passion, people, and technology, we improve maternal and infant health outcomes through personalized care management, parental engagement, and physician collaboration.
Our History
Dr. Ellen Stang founded ProgenyHealth in 2003 to address the need for improved care management and health outcomes for premature and medically complex newborns. Through her leadership and inspiration, the company has grown steadily into an industry leader in Maternity and NICU Care Management.
“I founded ProgenyHealth to address a very broken and fragmented healthcare system for managing the complex needs of mothers, newborns, and their families. I believed we needed a new, entrepreneurial approach, focused on whole-person, comprehensive care management to affect change and improve health outcomes.”

A proven program with over 20 years of experience
ProgenyHealth empowers our health plan and employer partners to change the trajectory of maternal and infant health outcomes across America. Informed by more than 20 years of experience and patient data, our end-to- end maternal and infant care management solution helps ensure the best possible outcome for every expecting mother we touch. Our wholly integrated, tech-enabled solution builds a network of support for an uninterrupted continuum of care from prenatal health, through any resultant NICU stay, and all the way up to one full year of life.
From the very beginning, we unite early health risk assessment data with self-directed digital tools and dedicated case managers who work tirelessly to connect at-risk moms-to-be with the resources, care, and support they need for a healthier, full-term delivery.
Our industry-leading, intelligent platform, Baby Trax®, integrates NICU utilization management and case management, while also driving payment validation & assurance activities based on clinical data. By promoting predictable, equitable, and standardized high quality care journeys, we ensure healthier outcomes—and lower costs—across an entire at-risk population. In so doing, we help overcome systemic barriers to support healthier pregnancies and healthier starts to life for all moms and babies, one family at a time.
