Question 1

What payment methods do you accept?

Accepted Answer

We accept credit cards, cash, and bank transfers. However, we only accept cash payments upon arrival at our office. Your balance must be paid during your first appointment.

Question 2

Can my spouse be present during the birth?

Accepted Answer

Yes, even in the case of a cesarean section, they may be present. Additionally, one person is allowed to remain in their room 24 hours a day.

Question 3

Can I travel while pregnant if it's a high-risk pregnancy?

Accepted Answer

We recommend obtaining a medical certificate from your primary doctor to ensure you are in good health and fit to travel.

Question 4

Is the episiotomy included in the package?

Accepted Answer

Yes, the episiotomy is included in the obstetric package.

Question 5

Can I pay only for a prenatal check-up appointment before enrolling or starting my full prenatal care?

Accepted Answer

If you want an appointment solely for a check-up, the cost is $398. Our maternity package includes all appointments from the moment you arrive, so if you decide to continue with medical care until delivery, the $398 will be credited toward the total amount.

Question 6

Do you accept health insurance?

Accepted Answer

If you have health insurance, it's important to know that all international insurance plans operate on a reimbursement system. We can complete the medical report and provide you with the payment receipt your insurance company will request to obtain reimbursement. For more information, please contact your insurance company directly.

Question 7

Can I pay for my delivery after my baby is born?

Accepted Answer

We do not offer our gynecology and obstetrics services on credit. Your medical services must be paid in full at the time of your initial consultation. This is done to avoid the use of government programs such as Medicaid, CHIP, etc., which are not designed for international patients, as their use may jeopardize your immigration status.

Question 8

Can you provide me with a letter of no debt after my delivery?

Accepted Answer

After your delivery and confirming that all payments have been made, we can provide you with a letter confirming that you have no outstanding debts. This letter is recommended, as it indicates that your account has been fully settled and that you did not use any government programs or Medicaid to cover your medical bills.
