Insurance Information
for Midwifery Clients
Homebirth with Stephanie + Insurance:
Fees for midwifery care is structured as package price that includes many different scenarios and is deeply discounted because it does not require the use of a medical biller.
If you utilize your health insurance, we have to bill the insurance for services rendered (vs the package price). This means sometimes what is billed to the insurance is more than the flat fee and sometimes it will be less.
The flat fee does not correlate with the amount billed to the insurance. The flat fee will count as a retainer towards your responsibility (deductible, coinsurance, etc.). If your responsibility is less than the flat fee you will be reimbursed the difference minus the insurance billing fee of 10%.
