Private hospital in NYC: Just the hospital "room and board" line is north of $40k: $13k per night of "enhanced nursery" for the newborn and around $10k per night for Mom. That's before all the doctors add their services.
No idea how you can make it lower than $10k :) Where was that?
- war1025 6y agoIowa. I think the base rate here is about $1k / night. Could be wrong on that though. Our oldest is four and half now, so it's been a while. It's possible I just didn't read the bills correctly. Either way I'm sure it was less than what you describe.
- lotsofpulp 6y agoMy experience in one of the most expensive suburbs of NYC, at the most highly rated hospital in the state, a baby with standard 2 night stay and delivery and no complications cost $20k or so all together with about $5k out of pocket on a gold HSA plan a couple years ago.
- throwawayiionqz 6y agoWe only paid $6k from HSA (maxing out the out-of-pocket) but that Mt Sinai hospital charges $80k (after adjustments) and the insurance pays the rest. I should add there was a C-secyion that barely added $10k to the bill. I know, couldn't believe it either
