Global Midwifery Fee
The Global Midwifery Fee includes all prenatals, the birth at your house, and postpartum visits up to 6 weeks. It does not include any labs or ultrasounds needed throughout care, but we can bill those through insurance if you have it.
I offer a Sliding Scale where there are three financial options for you to choose from. The bottom tier is 4,500, middle tier 5,000, and top tier 5,500. You choose what is best for you.
Costs and different options?
I believe Midwifery Care should be accessible to all people regardless financially where you are. It is our human right to have access to health care, so I want Sacred Born Midwifery to reflect those fundamental ideas. My hopes are that eventually we can stand in even a greater gap financially for families.
So how does it work?
We use a sliding scale system so there are three tiers to choose from. The price in the middle, 5,000 is what I normally charge. The other two options are the top tier 5,500 which is slightly above, and the bottom tier 4,500 which is slightly below. If you are interested in care and find yourself financially in a place to pay the top tier price, then the extra you pay funnels down and subsidizes prices for folks who find themselves in the bottom tier. This system is based completely on your own integrity, and how you feel led to pay. There is no judgment or questions asked for the payment option you choose.
Why does it work?
This kind of financial system is beautiful because the model is based in people taking care of people. Some years are tougher than others and some years are more fruitful than others. And by allowing ourselves the gift of becoming part of the community we actually all begin to take care of each other. There is no need to explain why you have chosen the tier you have, life changes and can be unpredictable. So blessing each other and taking care of each other is above all else the goal of this type of system.
