Would that even cover the hospital delivery bill?
Not in the USA
That wouldn’t even cover an ambulance ride to the hospital
not in the slightest. births can be up to 20k, plus if you want to have a healthy birth and healthy mom, all the prenatal stuff too. woman are also likely to have morbidities while pregnant, and can die. i the us has a high maternity mortality than other western countries.
when your pregnants, your body goes out whack, gestational diabetes, hbp, autoimmune diseases.
I hear you. I’m in Canada, and my daughter-in-law’s first pregnancy was challenging. Marginal umbilical cord insertion. Thankfully, we have universal health care. She had constant observation, and baby was induced a bit early due to the condition. Beautiful, healthy little girl. Thank you, Canadian health care! Bill: $0.00. So, for you traitorous bastards in Alberta, good luck with your health care bills in the US
our private healthcare was is so cumbersome and unnessary, it only exists because everyones been propagandized to think its better than a State subsidized healthcare system.
funny thing is conservatives are heavily dependent on our MEDI-CAID/care system, they will have a rude awakening once most of them will have to fork hundreds for highblood pressure meds, avrostatin for cholesterol, and insulin which can be hundreds per vial(if trump repeals biden isulin ruling).
In America, healthcare is big business. In Canada, it is a right.
