Developed at the turn of the 20th century, prenatal care is seen as one of the most important advances in obstetrics in the 20th century and its importance in reducing the incidence of fetal death is widely established (Healy et al. 2006). Prenatal care (PNC) visits provide a setting and context for education on pregnancy, delivery and infant care, and detection and treatment of medical conditions that may impede healthy pregnancy and delivery. Professors Korinek and Smith explored whether race, ethnicity, immigrant status and a range of socio-demographic characteristics influence mothers' risks of receiving less than adequate prenatal care. They also considered whether state policies toward immigrants, in particular immigrant mothers' ability to access a Utah driver privilege card, might influence levels of prenatal care utilization among expectant mothers.
