Our approach
Dedicated care teams
Unlimited access to a team of doctors, midwives, nurses, dietitians, therapists, lactation experts, and more. You’ll keep your in-person OB-GYN or midwife, but your Pomelo team is here for you between appointments (or whenever you need us!).
Customized care plans
We work with you to create a care plan designed just for you. Your care partner will support you every step of the way, whether it’s meeting with our dietitian, joining a virtual group with other expecting parents, or getting 1:1 support for gestational diabetes.
24/7 availability at $0 cost
No more rushed appointments or waiting rooms. Meet and message with your care team anytime (including nights and weekends) via text, phone, or video. Pomelo is free to members of Mount Sinai's health plan for most services.

FAQ
Employees and dependents on any Mount Sinai-sponsored United Healthcare/UMR medical plan who are pregnant, trying to become pregnant, or had a baby within the last year.
Pomelo is designed to supplement the care you're getting from an OB-GYN or midwife, providing additional support between in-person appointments. If you don’t have an OB-GYN or midwife already, we’ll help you find one. If you already have one, we’ll work with your in-person care team to make sure we’re collaborating to deliver you the best care possible.
Pomelo has worked with Mount Sinai’s health plan to deliver services at no extra cost.
