Are you trying to blame people here ? Like seriously I don't understand. . No one forced you to go to any hospital of your choice. You should be happy and pray for good health not complaining about bills.

Remember each case re different. What Mrs A spent at the hospital will be different from Mrs B and even on the doctors letter or billing, it states that amount can increase if complication arises, so why come here and blame people for watever complications you have ?

Lstly regardless of how much the test is, do it. Good health is better.

Na wa o, it seems some people are just after the blue passport and not the good health care you claim at the embassy , It sucks . It is well

Pls its urgent
Thanks

@zeezahbee, you wasn't blaming anyone in the forum. By "people", she meant the hospital.

lollydee:
I have replied you.

Pls check email

favouredB:


Please don't misquote me as I am not blaming anyone here. What I meant was that the hospitals here don't give you a comprehensive list of what and what you are expected to do. They just want to run the test to know if i am positive or not so they can determine baby's status. Like i told them I can have that test done in Nigeria. It must not be here. Even if you are Dangote we still have to be prudent in spending and avoid unnecessary costs.

zeezahbee:
I can't quote all your post so I won't take all the space, I am still saying the same thing. Regardless of what test they want to do, let them do it. The doctor knows what he/she doing. thank God you and your baby are in good health, some people's baby are in ICU and they don't even care about watever bill it will cost to get out.

Finally, you dnt have to be rude,it's an insult to my personality , if you don't want advice, you have shouldn't have posted it.

I am not dangote but I believe health is wealth. Good luck . I love you and your baby

Phema:


You know you should apologise for misconstruing her post. No need to be defensive.

And yes! She has EVERY right to be annoyed with the Dr! Her complaints are not unfounded. She asked for the total cost prior to her delivery and that test never came up. Why turn around and include the test much later and still not even tell her how much that will cost?

And yes! I (and many others) are after the blue pali. The good healthcare is a plus. No shame in that. No need to get all sentimental. If we wanted just good healthcare, we have options.

Again, until you walk in her shoes, refrain from being all judgemental.

Guys,please there are some things we should use wisdom for when we go abroad to have our babies because the citizens there are covered by insurance but we pay every dime.when I had my son last year,I was told I had to pay $350 for hearing aid test for my son.I was shocked,simply refused even when they were trying to say the paed would stop checking on us. I told them we don't do that in nig,besides,no deaf relatives. They saw how adamant I was and left my room.I was shocked to see the paed with us that evening and he attended to my baby thru out our stay in the us. My point is,as long as your baby is healthy avoid unneccessary test which I feel they use to exploit people. My son is perfectly ok and am glad I saved my $350. Money surplus but person get to dey wise while spending at least better to give the less priviledged than waste it.

favouredB:


Exactly my point. That's why we share all this experience here so people would also read and learn to stand on their rights. No need to allow them intimidate u becos they are white and they feel they know it all

zeezahbee:
You have succeeded in getting attention?
I will let this slide

zeezahbee:
Well maybe because I live in USA and believe in thorough medical check. All I also meant is that the doctor is not trying to take your money, he's just trying to be sure. You can decline the test if you think you are alright. I was a pharm in Nigeria before I moved to Texas so I know better.

No one should quote me onto this matter. I was only using my America mentality. I know dollar-naira rate haff increased. Sorry mamas trying to be prudent

@ FavourB .

That test should ve been one of the test u did during ur antenatal days.if u did it show them the result if not I understand their concerns HepB is a serious issue pls do the test if u ve not done it Be4 better safe Dan sorry.

Also some1 mentioned the hearing text. I Think that test is a USA requirement for new born. Pls if u can do the test I think the amount u mentioned is high n there should be a discount when I did for my NB It was only $200 n I didn't think twice about it.
