What it is
This is a 'global' maternity code for routine care during pregnancy, a vaginal delivery and care after birth. It is billed by the doctor or midwife and covers routine prenatal visits, the delivery itself, and routine postpartum visits.
What the price covers
It covers the delivering clinician's services. The hospital's labor and delivery stay, anesthesia (such as an epidural), lab tests, ultrasounds and the newborn's care are billed separately.
