thank you!  |
The cost of giving birth as a public patient I'm pretty sure are nil. You may have to pay for some prenatal things but you will get the Medicare rebate.
I would suggest that you book in pretty quickly. My four grandchildren were born in the public sector and the care the mothers and babies received was excellent. All the best.
