Public hearing set for February 6 on Mayo New Prague ending labor and delivery services

The Minnesota Department of Health (MDH) will hold a public hearing on Feb. 6 at 6 p.m. on Mayo Clinic Health System New Prague ending labor and delivery services.

Mayo Clinic Health System in New Prague will soon stop providing labor and delivery services, including operative delivery and Cesarean delivery, according to the submission it filed with MDH. Mayo Clinic Health Systems will continue to provide prenatal, post-natal and well-women outpatient services at its New Prague location.

The hearing will be hosted by MDH?s Health Regulation Division to provide a forum for the greater New Prague community to discuss the change in services and available alternatives for Mayo Health System patients.
