Content: Examples of hospital bill errors include being charged twice for procedures or being charged for medications or procedures you didn't have. For example, you might accidentally be charged for a circumcision kit. When my daughter was born, she certainly didn't have a circumcision. Or, you might find you were charged for a cesarean section when you had a vaginal birth. You will also hear stories of being charged for multiple epidurals or other medications. Negotiate a Price for Prenatal Care and Birth Package
If you are paying out of pocket for your prenatal care, labor, and delivery, see if you can get a "deal." Will you save money if you completely prepay all the fees that can be determined ahead of time? Will they offer you a discount for going to a certain hospital or birth center? Do not hesitate to shop around for prices for both your practitioner and your place of birth. After all, you are essentially the consumer of their products and services.
