Could you please tell me about the process? Like where to submit the application? How much it cost? What document required? As far as I know the hospital usually let us fill an application then they submit the application and this take around 10 days!( this what happened with us last time but in fort bend country, this time we will deliver in Harris County

Hello naira
Collected the non indebtedness letter from financial counselor and a zero balance but no itemized statement, I'm hoping to get that too.
Pediatricians 728$ after an initial bill of almost 1500. I called them and stated I was given a quote for healthy baby package which should be applied and honored, eventually they did and I paid over the phone and my statement and zero balance came in the mail.
Follow up pediatrician visit 69$ each visit
Pathology 179$
Birth certificate 75$ paid for expedited services

Please I need your help, my wife delivered already and we are still waiting for pediatric bill and pathology I called them a lot and replied that till now no benefit , I sent you also PM if you please can help me
Thanks

Need help please
We are for discharge now from HNWMC , I talked to Shelly and she said we are not giving itemized bills so I asked for zero balance statement she said after at least 3 weeks , I don’t have that 3 weeks!!!!!
For the rest of payment I am still struggling to pay , for Peditric they said call after 5 days , pathology said after 1-2 weeks , anathesia said the same , till they receive services from hospital,
Birth certificate is othe issue
Please advise me
Thanks

In the spirit of giving back ( the golden wards )
i am follower of this site since almost 2 years and i would like to thank all of you , i did learn a lot
we had our B1/B2 visa last August 2016 used it in March 2017 for its purpose , then we travel in January 10 2018 for giving birth my wife is 32 wks we traveled with Saudi airlines nobody ask her for anything , we arrived JFK not too much crowded as usual , in 4 min interviewed by very nice African American officer (we went fully prepared thanks for this site) please note that my wife is Syrian (country that in the Trump Muslim travel ban )
ME: Good day Sir
CBP: Hello , what are you here for ?
Me: to give birth for our first baby girl
CBP: how much you will stay ?
Me: me is for one week and my wife 12 weeks , as i will only settle her down and i have to go back to my job but i will be back to attend the delivery
CBP: so you have to go back ?
Me: yes , because of my job but i will be back after one month to attend the delivery
CBP: do you have insurance for that ?
Me: no Sir i will pay cash!
CBP: how much do you have with you ?
Me:9800$
CBP: that is good because if you have 10 or more you have to declare
Me: okay Sir
CBP: looking to my wife i will give you one year so you do not need for any extension and take your time till delivery, then look at me , i will give you only 6 months as you will come back
Me: Thanks Sir
CBP is typing and looking to our passports i thought he will change his mind so i asked him can we go Sir he said you are free to go , we collect our bags and no more inspection
thanks for all of you

So in the spirit of giving back ... Gosh I can't stand that line

Oh well, second missionary journey completed to the glory of God!

I used the same hospital and doctor as my first time.

Location- Dallas, Texas
Airline- Qatar. Ticket cost N418k (I will never fly them ever again. My experience with them was an absolute nightmare)

Medical expenses
Hospital fee - $3,000 (Vaginal delivery, 2 days hospital stay)
Doctor's fee - $2,400 (should have been $2,800 but I was allowed to pay my former fee as a return patient after much haggling.This fee is inclusive of all lab tests done at the doctor's clinic, sonogram and prenatal vitamins)
Epidural - $1,000 (Dem nor gree gimme discount . Apparently, this is already the discounted fee for self pay patients)
Hospital Paediatrician - $478 after discount (Original bill was $673)
Paediatrician after discharge - $215 (First visit $75 + second visit @2weeks $65 + $75 for new born screening done during the second visit)
Labs - $82 ($35 for me {original bill was $114} + $47 for baby {original bill was $109})

Total medical bill = $7,175

Declined hearing test and circumcision (they would have cost $330 and $710 respectively).

Documentation
Picked up baby's BC 4 days after birth. Had the passport appointment 7 days after birth, picked up the passport same day. Received baby's SSN 2 weeks after birth. Applied for VOA myself via email, got the approval within 48hours. Paid for it upon arrival. The process was pretty easy and straightforward. Got all my zero balance receipts before departure.

BC - $23 per copy + optional $2 for plastic envelop for safekeeping
Passport - $165 (expedited)
VOA - $190

Accommodation - After my horrible experience living with a family friend during my last missionary journey, I decided to rent a one bedroom apartment via Airbnb. Paid $3,400 for 11 weeks. God blessed me with the most fantastic airbnb host ever. I can't sing her praises enough. She made sure I had everything I needed in the apartment to make me comfortable. She bought a dry mill blender so I could blend my banga and pepper soup spices, bought a bassinet for my baby, books and toys for my toddler daughter and a sweater for my mum when it got cold. She took me to my doctor appointments, to the hospital, passport appointment, shopping, sightseeing and then returned to pick me up afterwards when she could. She took me to pick my husband up from the airport when he arrived and even went to drop him when he was returning. Upon my departure, her car was too small to fit me and my countless bags so she rented a truck just so she could drop us off at the airport. At the airport, she helped with my bags and paid a trolley guy to move my bags to the check in area before leaving. All this she did at no extra cost to me. Even when I offered to buy her fuel for her car, she'd vehemently refuse and tell me I am spending enough already as it is. This is a total stranger o, oyibo woman at that. Someone I didn't know from Adam and had never met before. I was beyond amazed at her hospitality and generosity. She saved me a lot on transportation and made my trip a lot easier. She was simply amazing to my family and I. God bless her immensely!

Mode of transportation - Uber and Lyft. I'd do a price check on both apps and request the cheaper option.

That's all folks. That's as far as my trip went.

Goodluck to everyone still on the journey and congratulations in advance. May it end in praise for everyone of you.

Officially hanging up my child bearing boots! Thank God for everything!!
