Pls under where can I also find it?

Go on their website, click on the 'Patient information', then on the 'price and financial assistance policy'. Scroll down and you will see it.

The Unplanned CS fee seem to have changed. Not too sure. Can someone confirm that?

While sitting for our number to be called, we were observing other people's interview. Infact out of about 60 people that were interviewed before us that morning, only about 8 were given, 4 out of which were people in the force. There was this particular young black American lady in window 1 that wasn't even giving her interviewee chance to prove their case, she was kinda mean. She interviewed about 10 people and didn't give any. Myself and hubby were praying our number don't appear at her window. We stayed longer than usual in the interview hall cos our number was called late. Our number was eventually called and then came the moment  wink


Congrats babe and may you conceive soon. My wife and i laughed when we saw the bolded part. That was our VO, i didnt want to give specifics of her identity when i shared my interview here so she wont use vex retrieve our passport and cancel our visas. By the way am not sure she is black american, her accent is different,i have been with blacks, she is prolly an African immigrant who got drafted to the foreign service. My cute VO wink, incase you are reading this, most guys who come from this platform are honest people, they've been trained to say the truth no matter what. So give us listening ear before that blue letter.

NB: I heard that the Abuja consulate listens to applicants cases patiently before denying. I have also heard of more Administrative processing cases in abuja than lagos. So i am advising fresh applicants to try abuja if the stress wont be too much. The crowd in lagos can be alarming so i cant blame the VO's if they get impatient. Above all pray for favor ,when its your time no one can stop you. cheers

That line doesnt look good. this was what was on the previous agreement package

Maricopa Integrated Health System (MIHS) is pleased to offer you the Maternity Package Plan Agreement. The Plan offers complete prenatal maternity care for one affordable price. The package prices include the physician fees and the hospital and clinic charges. You agree to deliver your baby at Maricopa Medical Center (MMC), sign this Agreement and provide payment in full within 90 days of contract signing or before discharge after delivery, whichever comes first. Should you desire to pay in full at the time of contract signing; the total package price will be reduced by 25%. Furthermore, following delivery at MMC, you will receive a refund for $250.00. This Plan is not limited to Maricopa County residents, and does not have any income requirements.

one needs to be careful.

@OAWELE I think its the same because it was updated 2februrary 2014 and many people gave birth recently with the same price. What do you think.?

That's kind of you. Please, do let the house know whatever they say.

I really do need to confirm this before paying for my flight. undecided

I want to use this medium to say a big thank you to the house. I have been a silent follower of this topic from page one till as long as it goes. I and my wife earlier applied for US visa by God's grace we were granted the visas and we're now in El Paso. I really love you all and I wouldn't have gone this far without you. My God continue to bless you all for the good work and much more.
thank you once again. I'll inform the house when my gracious baby is born.

@toitoi

That might be true. We have to see that comprehensive "maternity package plan" to be very sure. Unfortunately, its been taken off. I don't trust this scanty one on that page.

Let's wait til Oawele gets back to us tommorow.

Well i dont think it is the same, date of review can be different from date of implementation. what i am sure about is that it wont affect those that have already signed the contract and paid because there is no line in the contract that says changes to the package can be made with or without notice.

lets just wait and confirm from them.
Re: Give Birth In USA: Cost And Procedure? by MadameU: 3:03pm On Sep 14, 2014
@ phema and toitoi, let's actually wait to see what reviews may have been applied,and the conditions attached. In the mean time, I suggest we begin searching out alternatives.

Crossland rooms smell of smoke?? Wow! I hate odour of any kind ooo. I thought there was a "non smoking policy" in the hotel? angry Anyways, how much did they charge per night? How long will you be staying there? Were you given a discount and for how much?

Did the POE Officers at San Francisco ask for your Dr's appointment letter from MIHS? I'm just a little concerned since MIHS no longer gives Dr's appointment and also refuse to provide an email correspondence.

I'm talking about Crossland on the Mc Dowell Road. When I booked it trough Internet, I marked non-smoking room. Then when I settled down , I was askint to change a room. They tried to give me another toom and it was the same smelling. So, I decided to stay here for 2 weeks (for one week they prosposed higher price) and them I'm thinking to move in Palm Shadows. Before I want to check rooms there. By the way, Crossland takes taxes.

About POE. I just gave him my passport and in another hand I hold folder with all papers. He was just courious about that folder. I proposed to him to see my Financial Appointment Letter. There was mail from Women Clinic with Confirmation. My original Financial Appointmernt Letter was left in USA Embassy.

[quote author=anonymousmum]Hello house,

I am in need of some help,

the Doc that I have received a quote from, and I have decided to go with does not provide e-mail correspondence (Dr. Duc Le of Sugrland Methodist), even the hospital does not provide correspondence, even after trying to psyche/beg them on the phone...naija style no work grin

As I am sure we will all agree this is critical for POE...

Please do you have ...
