Uninsured And Pregnant In Nyc Posted: 01-24-04 10:25am
I
hope to get some idea on how I can access
healthcare being uninsured. One of the
hospitals in nyc has quoted a huge sum of
money for me to have my baby there. How
can my costs be reduced?!

Well I didnt have any insurance, and if
your in a lower income bracket then you
are qualified for some thing called
medicaid...It covers all the costs of
being pregnant and having the baby..Thats
what I am on, and I haven't had to pay one
dimel....Good luck, just go to ur
healthdept/dss..I dunno what its called in
newyork, check around..

A word of the wise though...In wisc. The
father must repay the birthing expence if
the pregnany woman had the child using
medicaid or medical assistance!!!!! I am
pretty sure that applies for every state
that offeres medical assistance!
