Is the US mother legally entitled to live in the UK? If so, it is free (though the term 'free' is used loosely as any resident of the UK who is actually working pays into the health system, kind of like insurance). If she is not legally entitled to live in the UK, there should be a charge and rightly so as it costs the system on average of £41,000 for a normal full term birth (2006 figures). Longer stays, premature births etc obviously cost much more so someone who comes to the UK solely to have a baby on the NHS and doesn't have a right to its health care system should be charged 'something', whether it be through their US health insurance or from own pocket. Someone's entitlement to free NHS treatment depends on the length and purpose of your residence in the UK, not your nationality. Staff at the hospital should ask for your National Insurance number and you may be asked to provide documents, for example a passport, to show that you are in the UK legally. If it is not clear whether you are entitled to free treatment, you will be interviewed more fully. Documentation and a medical opinion may be required. (Source: http://www.adviceguide.org.uk)

Can a Zimbabwe student give birth to a child in the UK and stay in the UK?
It is possible for a Zimbabwean student to give birth in the UK, but staying in the UK would depend on the immigration status of the student.

No as long as you do it on the hospital, they just make you watch a video and make sure that he understands that the baby will be his responsibility also.
