ECHO in Rural Obstetrical Care

The ECHO in Rural Obstetrical Care is a new statewide initiative supporting clinicians who care for pregnant patients in rural and frontier communities. Developed by the Wyoming Institute for Disabilities (WIND) and funded by the Wyoming Primary Care Association, this virtual learning network provides monthly, case-based training focused on high-risk obstetrics and maternal health emergencies.

Wyoming data shows that maternal morbidity and mortality are impacted by mental health, substance use, and barriers to timely emergency care—challenges that are often magnified in rural settings. Through this ECHO, clinicians gain practical strategies, skills, and connections to better manage complex pregnancies, reduce risk, and strengthen Wyoming’s maternal health workforce.

This network also intentionally creates space for OB/GYNs to participate alongside Family Medicine and Emergency Medicine providers. Including OB perspectives helps build statewide trust, improve consultation patterns, and foster the “friendly face you can call” when a case escalates.
