[quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous]Oh- thanks! about the reminder of a doula. We've had that reimbursed in the past and definitely will try again.

So:

1) Doula = $1000
2) Birth = 150 (Vaginal) or 250 (C)
3) First co-pay ped = $30 (?)
4) Pregnancy care co-pay = 30
5) Special test co-pays??

THanks![/quote]

I'm not sure what you are talking about PP. These numbers do not match reimbursements under either BCBS plan. Are you looking at another insurer?

Under BSBC Standard:
1) Not sure.
2) $0
3) $0 well child ($20 if you have a sick visit)
4) $0 
5) Depends. If "maternity," then $0, otherwise 15% after deductible plus $30 co-pay to see a specialist if test is covered. If it is too "special" to be covered, you pay out of pocket, and with a non-preferred provider, you pay more.

Under BSBC Basic:
1) Not sure.
2) $150 either birthing method
3) $0 well child ($25 if you have a sick visit)
4) $0
5) Depends. If "maternity," then $0, otherwise a co-pay that can range from $25 to $100 for procedure plus co-pay of $35 to see a specialist and 30% of supplies used, but no deductible. Of course, if it is  too "special" to be covered or you choose a non-preferred provider, you pay out of pocket. [/quote]
