Psychiatric Conditions During the Prenatal and Postpartum Period in the TRICARE Population: 2019–2023

This study found that more than one in five deliveries in the MHS were associated with an incident psychiatric condition during pregnancy or one year postpartum. Incidence of psychiatric conditions in women receiving care in the MHS was comparable with the American population. Despite universal access to care, variations in patient likelihood of having psychiatric conditions across different characteristics were observed.
