faster save now....i know private hospital dun let you take the baby unless you already.
im also not working, everything depend on my hubby. *stress*
Tiggee, i think the different hospitals put up, on their website, an estimate of the costs of various procedures and room types that they can offer. I know TMC has. You can check out the one you are delivering at.
6-7k is already not very high. I tink my SIL did an emergency c-sect too, and it went up to $10k or something, including the stay.
I intend to buy insurance for my baby immediately after giving birth so that he would be covered if anything happen. I know of baby who had to be hospitalised for respiratory problems and that can be alot of money also.
I know I painted a very grim picture. I suppose we should be prepared for emergencies!
i think i will be going to TMC cos most likely got free upgrade to 2 bedded. i went to check, if normal delivery w/o epi is 4k plus, i dunno is minus medisave already anot.
i noe my friend pay abt 2K or less in cash at TMC, natural w/o epidural
y got free upgrade? haha...sounds like hotel stay! =þ
I'm not very sure but I believe the cost quoted should be before medisave deductions. And I signed up for a package with my gynae and the nurse says I can also claim $400+ from the cost of the package after I deliver. Everything is new to me, so got to check with the experienced mamas.
i think max i can save also abt 2 to 3k only. i hope the baby guai guai come out naturally w/o giving me too much pain!
wah w/o epidural?? sounds scary.....
Cos TMC only got one 4 bedded room, so normally will get free upgrade.

E $400 tat e nurse told u is e antenatal package u sign with ur gynae after 2nd trim for ur chkup, u need to bring e receipts with u when u go for delivery n pass to e registration counter, they will help u to submit and claim from medisave, hopey explanation is clear
