Wow. I am now imagining a black market where I invite pregnant mothers and families to come stay with me. I could literally house you and entertain you and provide all your needs for 2 months prior to birth at which point you would roll into any hospital and have the child. In Canada the estimated cost for a regular birth is $5000-$8000 or $10000-12000 for a c-section. THAT IS CANADIAN DOLLARS! You spent 80k usd. Again wow. If I only had half of what you paid I could offer a lavish stay with everything taken care of. Plus world class doctors. How come more people are not traveling to have babies? Baby number 2 in the works yet?;)
- ssdjuka 7y agoTo be clear I (we) do have insurance so I'm not paying 80k out of my pocket. Just wanted to provide anecdotal evidence to the claim that hospital stay is outrageous. And that was baby No.3 that part of my life is done :D
- phonon 7y agoSo what was the ultimate negotiated price your insurance paid? Likely there was a 70%+ discount applied.
