Water birth with Medicaid ?

Question

Is there any way I can do a home water birth with Medicaid ?

Answer

I’m not sure but I am planning a home water birth and it’s a 100% out of pocket expense as the midwifery company I felt most safe and comfortable with did not take insurance of any kind. My total is about $6500.00 and it includes prenatal and postpartum care for me and baby up to 6 weeks.

Answer

Yes but you probably will have to pay quite a bit out of pocket.  I was set to have a home/water birth with my second (she was a preemie so it didn’t happen) and my out of pocket costs were around $2400.  I did get 75% refunded though as I had a hospital birth
