Hi there,
We have been living in Brisbane for 6 months now and my wife is 5 weeks pregnant. We're worried about the costs as we're going the public system at the Royal Brisbane Hospital.
How much would it actually cost? She has already had one Doctors appointment $100 - 63 (Medicare) = $37.
She has been told she needs to see the Doctors at least every month until she gives birth ~$37 X 9 = $333
1. Then a blood test. $ ?
2. Then 1st scan $ ?
3. Then 2nd which is private $ ?
4. Then giving birth, gas and air $ ?
5. Then could be epidural $?
6. Being admitted, staying for 1-3 days ? $ ?
7. Anything else $?
Appears to be a nightmare to me. And the sneeky Medicare only have their Safenet set at $1111.
What roughly would be the total?
All I get of medicare, is "well it depends on the hospital"
