I hope the lady listen to you Hauwa but if she refuse to listen it's all on her and I hope she will have the nerves to tell her baby someday that she has to cheat the government by using someone else identity to pay for the baby's medical bill.It is much better for you to give birth in the UK where you are legal than come here and find out the hard way.medical bills in America is a big issue but alot of naijas won't tell you the truth but whatever you want to do it's all on you.

KayUsa-Get off your high horse; who said anything about using someone else identity; I had stated that am looking to pay; from information i have gotten here; i have been able to contact some hospitals charging in the region of $5-9K; and is no where near the $20k u r quoting to have paid; of which am assuming was paid by ur insurance; do have a medical insurance here which covers me in the US due to the nature of my job; but maternity is not covered as it is deemed as a pre-existing condition. So am looking to pay for giving birth to my child; and i know that prices vary across different states; hence the reason for the post.

Ilelobola:

And pray you have no complications. My uncle's wife (legal resident in the US) had their daughter prematurely and their insurance was not enough to cover the bills. They have over $60k they are still working night and day to pay off.

On the other hand, if you are thinking of not paying, you can still be prevented from ever re-entering the US regardless of what citizenship you hold. I've heard of people with UK and Nigerian citizenship that were found out and banned for 99 years. Basically forever.

Good luck.

Thanks; Hopefully; there wont be any complications; not looking to go to the US until am about 7 months or so; Also I have no plan of absconding without pay; hence the need for the enquiries.

Sorry to deviate a little bit. In case ti anybody ba fe wa bi omo si Db hospital kan wa ti o je ofe fun omo bibi. Anyone that need the info can contact me all i need do is give you the name and address of the hospital.

Hi Ayomifull your email id is blocked could u send me an email please with the info.

It really depends on the state where you give birth, I personally feel $3000 will be a long shot to cover all the bills, especially if you require admission close to your delivery period and need to pay for an anaesthesiologist and all the other specialists.

Places like Georgia are a bit complicated and can be expensive, I'd suggest Chicago, Illinois - if you have a relation or friend in the area who can assist then it would be useful. In addition, the very good public transit in Chi town helps you do the running around yourself not requiring someone to drive you around as would be the case in most of the south.

Thanks Debosky: I think I have a family friend in chicago; but dont think he would be in the know; could u pls give a low down of hospitals in chicago which might be good. u can send me a email

Like others said, just buy the ticket but make sure you are not too heavy or airline officials may decline to board you. If you come to the Washington DC area, preferably you have folks in the area, let them inquire about Providence Hospital. If you do your due diligence, you'd end up not paying a dime for your hospital costs. G'Luck.

Hi K2; Would be glad if you could give me more info my email is = smoves79@ gmail.com thanks
