Delivery costs at Piedmont?

I am curious what the hospital bills for staying there for delivery/recovery. I already know what my doctors fees are, but I don't know anything about the hospital. I have good insurance and will only have to pay 10%, out-of-pocket max of $1500. Trying to figure out how much should go into the FSA... TIA!

Re: Delivery costs at Piedmont?

  • I can look up my costs tomorrow.  I paid 100% out of pocket so I have all the breakdown somewhere.    Total including anesthesia,  c-section, pediatrician, room and board, etc was around $15,000.   
  • Sorry, I can only tell you what my c-section cost. Without complications, it was around $14K. BCBS covered everything except for $1000 co-insurance and $250 co-pay.

  • I'd do the $1500 - it'd cover a c-section, and you can use FSA for doc appts and meds - there are a  lot of doc appts!

  • If you call your insurance company they should be able to tell you what you will pay out of pocket or at least give you an estimate.  Good idea using the FSA.  I did the same thing!

  • I would save enought to cover your out of pocket in full whatever the max is to be safe.
