Doctor bill??

Question

Hi everyone, I’m 10 weeks tomorrow and had my first dr visit at 8 weeks. I just got the bill and AFTER insurance (I’m in USA) it’s $300! I thought insurance covers prenatal care?? This is my 3rd baby, and I don’t remember it being this expensive - I switched to a new practice though. Have other people had similar bills?

Answer

Check with your insurance company. Most of the time even for prenatal, you have to pay the deductible in full before they pay anything at all. So if your deductible equals up to 600 or even 3000 in some cases (depending on the plan) that is the amount YOU pay out of pocket before they cover the rest. They usually cover birth the same way.

Answer

I would check with your insurance and see what they cover, and also make sure you new practice is covered. I had to switch practices at the start of this pregnancy due to changing my insurance.
