T.G.
When I had my daughter I was without isurance. I looked into it and every plan in FL costs more that what it was for self pay. You may qualify for medicare pregancy insurance. Other than that you would be best to just pay out of pocket. I paid $3000. for the dr and $3000 for the hospital. And all my testing was on top of that, but it was still cheaper than paying for insurance rider and keeping on, not to mention when the hospitals and drs have to deal with insurance the cost sometimes triples. So your 50% is more that the money you would have paid alone. (I got approved for medicaid once I gave birth to my daughter and they then paid her hospital bill and the hospital refunded my $3000.00. But the hospital billed medicaid $12,000. for the labor and deliverly.) Hope this helps.
