Insurance Options for Pregnant Women in North Carolina

Posted in Insurance Tips by John Edwards on May 17, 2010 1 Comment

Are you pregnant and you’re having a hard time getting covered by any plan? Then you must take note of the following options listed below:

1. Group maternity insurance coverage. This type of coverage has the most advantageous way to pay for maternity costs because many group policies cover maternity for all females even without an additional rider.

2. Individual maternity insurance coverage with Blue Cross Blue Shield. The policies which you can avail are the ones called Blue Advantage® and Blue Options HSA sm.

3. Medicaid maternity coverage. Check the local website of this plan so as to learn about the income eligibility requirements and application instructions.

4. Prepayment plans. If you are already pregnant, you can also consider getting a prepayment plan. Several hospitals offer discounts for paying out of pocket in advance. In handling prepayment negotiations however, you should remember that it is important to be very specific about what is covered by the arrangement and if the price includes complications of pregnancy, or only normal delivery.

As a conclusion, I must say that Medicaid is the best option for those who are quite short when it comes to their budget, next would be the group insurance.

    When I was pregnant I was using Medicaid card but i’d like to give you an advice: apply for additional benefits for your baby which includes everything even dental coverage. Nice deal!
