Do you know your Maternity Benefits?
Having a clear understanding of your health insurance benefits, coverage, and the limitations of your specific policy early on in your pregnancy is very important to help you plan and budget for upcoming expenses.
Each insurance company has many different plan and policy options. Deductible requirements, co-pay/co-insurance responsibilities, and benefit coverages vary from policy to policy, so it’s important for you to be aware of your specific health insurance coverage.
If you are not familiar with the details of your plan, please refer to the documents you received when you enrolled with the insurance, whether from an employer, the state, or on-line. You can also obtain this information by calling the number listed on your insurance card or refer to the insurance company’s website.
Camelback Women’s Health staff will contact your health insurance company to verify your benefits and determine the amount you will owe Camelback Women’s Health for the routine global maternity package services. We are not responsible for any misinformation provided to us by your insurance company’s representative.
We will assist you with monthly payment arrangements to help you meet this obligation in full prior to delivery, due to the fact that you will receive additional bills from the hospital, surgical assistant (Cesarean sections only), anesthesiologist, and the pediatrician in the weeks after you deliver your baby.
Before moving forward with advanced laboratory services, such as genetic or chromosomal testing, we strongly recommend you verify whether or not these services are a covered benefit under your insurance plan since not all insurance companies pay for these services, even if you have maternity coverage.
If you do not have health insurance coverage or maternity benefits, Camelback Women’s Health has an all-inclusive self-pay prenatal package for routine pregnancies. We can assist you with arranging a payment plan.
For questions about your account or help with understanding your benefits, please contact the Camelback Women’s Health’s billing department at 602.494.5050.
