Insurance that covers pregnancy ?

The only 2 that I know of are the state insurance and the military insuance. We have military insurance (tricare prime) and have not paid a single dollar for our high risk multiple birth pregnancy or the 78 day nicu stay.

Blue Cross Blue Shield I believe WILL cover pregnancy. B U T... You have to have it on your policy for at LEAST 1 year. So if you did get pregnant in a month or so you would basically be SOL and stuck with WIC or some other state insurance (Which is a pain) My wife has the state provided insurance even though we are Blue Cross members, but we did not have the policy for a complete year before she became pregnant, so... lets just say its not that fun going to the doctor and trying to get things paid and prenatal vitamins and whatnot.

Blue Cross California covers pregnancy too, they represent the major insurers in the State who all have stellar reputations for service. They all use medical underwriting to determine rates. This means the cost to you is reflective of how much risk they believe they are taking. There is cheap health insurance in California, but your history is one of the factors they will use to determine price structure.

I believe that some BSBS plans as well as United Healthcare plans offer maternity coverage. The premiums are usually higher but wouldnt you rather pay a little extra a month instead of a $5000 copay for each maternity related issue? Check out health insurance brokers because instead of just carrying one health insurance company, they carry a lot of different plans and carriers. I get my health insurance from Health Plan One .They allow you to compare plans and add the proponents you need. Hope this helps!
