Re: How much did you have to pay out of pocket when you gave birth?

I kept getting denied for health insurance and couldnt afford anything at the time... Giving birth is equivalent to purchasing a new car. I want to say my bill was about $20K. When I was finally approved for something after birth they retro'd it to the day before DD was born so I got to pay $0.

I think it was a $20 copay to the doctor first and second time around. No hospital copay. Everyone was in network.

For DD it was just the $250 co pay and for DS it should have been a $500 co pay but DH's job has a fun to reimburse for hospital co pays so we ended up paying $0.

I think it was like $600? I can't remember, but when they sent the bill of what we would've paid without insurance, I happily forked over the couple hundred. It was like $18k with no insurance. Yikes! Chat Icon



It's so crazy how the bills from different hospitals and the out of pocket with different insurances can vary so greatly!

My hospital bill was $65k Chat Icon and I GLADLY paid $300 out of pocket

I think it was $500 copay for the hospital stay each time.
