Mediclaim is a reimbursement policy where the amount of expenses incurred during your hospitalization or pre & post hospitalization according to your policy will be given back to you.

If the parents have health insurance through their employer - their will be a "child" or "family" rate. This amount will vary depending upon your employer's plan features and group risk factors. In North Carolina, the cost to add a baby to a group policy cold range from $150-250.

If you are looking for individual health insurance for a baby the rates will vary depending on the following factors:

1 - Plan features such as deductible, copay, and co-insurance.

2 - Current health of the baby. Health insurance companies could "rate up" a baby if there are health conditions present.

What can you do if you can't afford medical care when you are pregnant have no insurance and can't get Medicaid?

Can you get state assistance? I'm not sure what Medicaid is, sorry if it's state assistance. Some options are looking into a free clinic. They have low to no fees depending on your income. Or going to a doctor that will work with you on a payment plan during and after they baby is born. That may be difficult to find, I'm not sure. There are plenty of options. Call a few doctors and talk with them. They may be able to help you find insurance of some other way to have your baby safely in a hospital.

With my experience we couldn't afford health care either & I applied for medicaid & got turned down. Over & over again. My friend told me if I quit & only my husband worked we would get approved for medicaid & she was right. When I quit my job & reapplied for medicaid it got approved.

If you and your husband are both working and your income is "too high" to qualify for Medicaid, you can claim that the two of you are separated so only the mother's income will count toward the qualifications. That has helped some people I know get Medicaid.
