Home Birth
Insurance
The Birth Center does not accept insurance for our services. We are happy to provide receipts that you can submit to your insurance or health share for reimbursement. All our services can be purchased using HSA/FSA funds.
For August 2023 due dates and beyond, we are offering home birth. All the above is included. Your prenatal care will be at The Birth Center. But your birth will take place in your home. You will need to supply a tub, if you would like one. But we will arrive with all the necessary medical equipment.
Payment Schedule
A deposit is due to secure your due date. This deposit is non-refundable and goes toward your total fee. A second payment is due at 28 weeks and the remaining is due at 36 weeks. This last payment is refundable should you risk out of care before being admitted to The Birth Center for labor. Please contact us for current pricing and fee schedules.
