Is your OB asking for payment up front?

I have both private insurance through my employer and Medicaid (I lucked out I make $100 less than the Max so I qualified)

Well my OB/GYN doesn't accept Medicaid but the hospital does... Which is where my private comes (max out of pocket is $1500 / $0 deductible)

They want me to pay the full amount before going into labor I'm like why... The said hospital fees but the hospital accepts Medicaid so I shouldn't have to pay them anything. The combination of insurances covers everything from what I read. Not only that but I buy meds monthly for my asthma and at $100 a month that should reduce the max out of pocket. To roughly about $1000

Anyone else in a similar situation and can shed some light? I have an appointment to talk to the financial lady at the clinic and the hospital on the 17th.id like to be prepared
