Hello

I recently had my baby in Calgary. The truth is that you need to pay the 15k deposit before you are attended to.

The 15k deposit covers the doctor’s fees, epidural/spinal and pediatric fees. It does not cover the hospital fees (which you will pay on a daily basis and the rates vary per hospital), laboratory works or ultrasound. Once you have put to bed, they will process your invoice and give you a refund (depending on how much you use). This reconciliation process takes about 10 weeks and I am waiting on their final invoice to determine the balance.

Also note that the hospital fees are seperate, depending on the hospital you are now assigned to, their fees varies and they charge for the Mother and Child separately. So there is a fee for the mother and the child.

You can consider other locations if you have time, especially locations in Alberta but not Calgary as the 15k initiative is only applicable in Calgary.

I hope this helps

Please did you pay medicom before you came into Calgary or did you pay after arrival? They don’t seem to attending to patients until you arrive Calgary. Thanks for the help

As far as you are giving birth in Calgary and you are an out of country patient ! You need to pay the 15k deposit to medicom for you to get a doctor and for the hospital to admit you except you want to pay through your nose .
I just had my baby in Calgary and I paid the 15k deposit , the hospital fee is different from the deposit so I am waiting for my bill .
I will share the break down when I get everything .

Please can I reach out to you for more information on how you were able to pay medicom. It seems to be difficult now.

Good evening everyone. Please I need guidance towards giving birth in Calgary. Medicom says I have to be in the province before I get more information. Can anyone assist me please?

Hello everyone. Please I intend to go to either Calgary or Toronto to have my baby. What city works out cheaper and if you have any hospital details. Please share. Thank you

Hi Everyone! Has anyone booked a domestic flight from new York to Houston from Nigeria recently? If yes, how did you go about it especially the payment. Thank you.

firsttymum:
is there a direct flight to Houston?

Apologies! I actually meant....has anyone traveled to Houston via JFK. If yes, how stressful did you find it. I intend to use Air France but i'm slightly worried about the stress of picking up my bags, checking them in again and using a local flight to Houston.

Good Morning Everyone! Has anyone travelled to Houston via JFK, how stressful did you find it? Would you recommend a direct flight to Houston instead? Please let me know. Thank you so much
