  • Need information regarding getting the baby deliveryed in US

    Hi....
    I'm in US for Business purpose with a B1 visa & my wife is with B2 visa accompanying me. We are expecting our baby's delivery in 2 months time. I'm confused whether to send my wife back to India or to deliver the baby here in US itself.
    The community service hospital where we are currently taking medical advice say there is no problem for delivering the baby here in US & there will not be any problem for applying insurance also. But I'm not sure whether I can avail this insurance when I'm in US with a B1 visa. If there is no complications or troubles involved in taking the insurance, we will be happy to get the baby delivered here in US itself.
    Need some expert advice in this regard.

    You should talk to a medical practioner (both in US and India) to figure out if it is safe for your wife to travel in the last trimester of pregnancy.
    Whether your home country insurance will cover charges for child delivery in US hospital is something you have to figure out by talking to your home country insurance service provider / employer.
    If you are on Business visa, your employer should have provided you with some sort of travel insurance coverage. You need to talk to your employer to figure out if that coverage entitles you for child birth coverage as well or not.

      Hi... I'm a self employee. Me and my wife both have travel insurance, but they said it will not cover the child birth expenses & also my indian insurances will not cover the child birth expenses outside India.
      My only worry now, are we eligible to get any kind of insurance in US for the child birth ? If I can get a clear view regarding this, we will be ready to make our decision.
